MEMORANDUM FOR: The Honorable James P. Wade, Jr.
Principal Deputy Under Secretary of Defense
for Research and Engineering
SUBJECT: Nuclear Weapons Master Plan (NWMP) Studies
Relating to Intelligence
The Chairman of the Intelligence Working Group at the 3 March meeting
requested the IC Staff representative to review, comment and provide ICS
concurrence on individual papers relating to the Working Group's total
efforts. I believe that it is appropriate to establish our policy on the
question of coordination and concurrence at this time. The Intelligence
Community Staff coordinated on all NWMP-1 papers, as appropriate and within
reasonable time constraints, but reserved actual concurrence for the final
completed study. This approach enables the DDCI to review all aspects of the
program in their proper context before taking a formal position on any aspect
of the program. I'm sure that you will understand my position on this matter,
and I assure you that my staff will effect coordination on all papers, as
requested by the Chairman of the Intelligence Working Group, and in as
expeditious a manner as possible. F-1
