DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
Security Committee
SECOM-D-371
16 November 1982
NSC REVIEW COMPLETED
MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
VIA: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
Director, Intelligence Community Staff
SUBJECT: Unauthorized Disclosures of Intelligence
1. Action Requested: That you sign a letter to Judge Clark asking for
Administration approval of those recommendations in the Willard report that
the White House deems acceptable.
2. Background: In response to NSDD-19, an interagency group of repre-
sentatives from CIA, Defense, State, Treasury, Energy and Justice, chaired by
Deputy Assistant Attorney General Richard Willard, did a very thorough evalua-
tion of the leak problem and made a number of useful suggestions. These were
embodied in what came to be known as the Willard report. It was sent by the
Attorney General to the President on 31 March 1982: The NSC Staff sent the
recommendations - expressed in a draft NSDD - to department and agency heads
for comment. You endorsed them. In late July, you asked Judge Clark about
the status of action on this NSDD. Judge Clark acknowledged the need for
action and said he would advise you of the status. No response is known to
date. The frustration level in the Community about leaks continues to rise.
Knowledge of what support the White House will give to measures aimed at
dealing with leaks is needed to support a coordinated Community approach.
3. Staff Position: Security Committee members unanimously support
another request to Judge Clark for approval of as many as possible of the
report's recommendations.
4. Recommendation: Sign the attached letter to nudge Clark.
