SUMMARY COMMENTS ON REORGANIZATION PLAN
The two-fold purpose of the reorganization was to
structure the Office of Security along "clean, functional
lines" and otherwise consolidate operating and staff units
to permit the deletion of excessive positions, ranging
from supergrade to clerical, without diminishing-our opera-
tional effectiveness.
The most immediate and obvious reductions from a
personnel and management standpoint are:
1. Elimination of all senior staff elements
2. Reduction of. Divisions from nine to six
25
3. Deletion of positions, includ-
ing one supergrade position
4. Reduction of the average grade from
10.016 to 10.008
Significant organizational changes include the follow-
1. Policy and Management:
a. A Deputy Director for Policy and
Management (DD/PM) is established
to merge, under one senior officer's
supervision, matters relating to the
monitoring of budgetary program sub-
missions, project objectives, and
traditional administrative support.
b. The DD/PM will also absorb all activi-
ties in the field of security policy,
including the Special Security Center,
Secretariat of the Security Committee
United States Intelligence Board, and
the Information Handling Group's

responsibilities for computer
security, Executive Order 11652,
and Top Secret Control.
c. Additionally,' the Security Records
Division is being placed under the
DD/PM to consolidate all service
functions under one manager.
d. In effect, the DD/PM replaces the
former Executive Staff and Adminis-
tration and Training Staff.
2. Security Screening, Investigations, and
Support:
a. The consolidation of the Investiga-
tions and Operational Support Direc-
torate and the Personnel Security
Directorate into a new major com-
ponent known as the Personnel Security
and Investigations Directorate (DD/PSI)
will place all people oriented problems
in the clearance and investigative
support field under the supervision of
one senior officer. Benefits derived
from t'l,is action will create greater
uniformity, reduce clearance processing
time, and improve understanding.within
Agency elements outside the Office of
Security on overt and covert clearance
matters.
b. In placing th within'
the DD/PSI, duplication will be elim-
inated by having all personnel handling
employee problems and clearances within
.the same Directorate, with the ability
to communicate directly with the field.
c. The Security Research Staff is being
eliminated and its functions are being
absorbed within the Clearance Division

by assignment of a 'Counter-
intelligence Specialist to the
Chief, Clearance Division, and
the creation of a Research Branch
in that element.
d. The program is being
Division to em ha~isecurity Support
ing requirements for itseuseninnu-
operational situations. It is
renamed the Interrogation Branch.
3. Physical, Technical, and Overseas Security:
a. Realignments in the Physical,
Technical, and Overseas Director-
ate will consolidate all survey
functions, whether foreign or
domestic, under one senior super-
visor increasing our flexibility in
this regard, and placing similar
skills in the same unit. In this
process the Overseas Security
Support Division has been eliminat.ed.
b. Placement of alarms and physical
security equipment specialists in
the Technical Division will-sub
stantially increase our capability
to respond in the technical field.
It will also place all engineering
capabilities within one division,
with the exception of the Safety
Branch which is an integral part of
the Physical Security function.
