MEMORANDUM FUR: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
NIC rr882.O-83
7 Decemt>er 1983
THROUGH Charles E. Waterman
Vice Chairman, National Intelligence Council
FRUM David D. Gries
National Intelligence Officer for Narcotics
SUBJECT Your 8 December Meeting with DEA Administrator Mullen
-- The exchange of letters concerning the National HUMINT Collection
Plan on International Narcotics between you and Mullen was
unsatisfactory to both sides. With one exception (see below),
the problem is one of tone.
-- The exception concerns operating procedures governing CIA and DEA
abroad. In his letter to you, Mullen cites President Nixon's
message of 1973 transmitting the DEA Reorganization Plan No. 2 to
Congress as giving responsibility for "all relations with drug
enforcement officials of foreign governments". Executive Order
12333 of 4 December 1981, which has the force and effect of law,
supersedes President Nixon's message and gives this same
responsibility to the DCI. There can be no mistaking which of
the two documents is governing.
Memorandum of Understanding.
