PLAN' FOR SIX-MONTH TRIAL PERIOD
OF ~RF~D WORKING GROUP
AS~ Rf~D SUBCOMMITTEE
During the six-month trial period (30 September 1975-
28 February 1976), the Rf,D l>>orking Group of the Technical
Surveillance Countermeasures Subcommittee swill function as
a subcommittee of the Security Committee.
During this period the Chairman of the Rf~D Working Group
will report to the Chairman of the Security Committee in the
same manner as other~subcammittee chairmen.
The Rf,D 'rVorking Group will continue to support the
Security Committee and the Security Committee subcommittees
on the basis of tasking by those subcommittees. Acceptance of
tasking from other subcommittees will be subject to approval
of 'the Chairman of the RED Working Group.
'hn order to insure proper coordination of the activities
of the RfaD Working Group with the other subcomrnitte.es, the
Chairman of the R$D LJorking Group or his designee will attend
the regular meetiTrgs of the other subcommittees when items of
RFD interest are~to be discussed. This can be arranged as
desired, either on a routine or an ad hoc mutually acceptable
basis between the Chairman. of the RED arki.ng Group and the
Chairmen of the other subcommittees. Since the preponderance
of the RFD Working Group's activities are expected to be in
the technical surveillance cauntermea.sures area in the next
six months, it is p.fanned tc~ p,xovide the same regular reporting
to the Technical Surveillance Countermeasures Subcommittee as
has previously been the custom of the R$D Working Group.
When tasks are assigned, that in the judgement of the
Chairman of the Rf~D Working Group are beyond the area of
expertise of the permanent ~?epresentatives or will requixe a
significant amount of effort, approval of the Chairman of the
Security Committee gill be obtained prior to undertaking the
.work. For those approved tasks rec{uiring expertise not avail-
able within the permanent membershiu of the Rf~D Working Group
special task forces will be established on the informal advice
of the Rf~D Working Group membership.
