M ORANDUM FOR THE DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL I TELLIOOd+1CE
Subjecti Comments on Production Plan
1. The following suggestions are submitted on policy stand to be
taken by the Director on ICAPS" commments.
is
Par. 11. Agree that this/policy CIO should take if 3rd
Agency rule is brought up by some member at the IAB meeting,
We, however, should not bring it up.
Par. 5. Suggest not referring to JCS in any gray until
after approval of paper by IAB.
Par. 6. Agree - this agreement means that we continue
present ad hoc committee but CIO does the rest of coordin-
ation.
Par. 7. Agree -- must be kept flexible. However, if
it is explained to IAB that implementations will be sub-
ject to their approval, there can be no objection.
Par. 8. Inconsequential and as ICAPS recommends not
worth making an issue of.
Par. 9. While desirable, this point should not be
made an issue of in this paper, nor until such time as
we are prepared to offer a complete dissemination plan.
Par. 10. Inconsequential.
Par. 11. Minor point. Agree if IAD.will not object.
Par. 12. Recommend tr.at Director allow A-2 and ONI
to take the lead in this argument at the meeting. Sae
will then be in a position to offer a compromise,, if
necessary, but should not "take sides" in advance.
Par. 13. Agree - Director can handle this by
pointing out that the pars,, on National Intelligence
is our field of unquestioned dominant interest. I
believe it should be simple to sell the rather minor
changes suggested by ICAPS.
