We appreciate the opportu dinate and comment on the article prepared by on the work of the Task Force he directed. We un ers an that the article has been proposed for publication in the DDA Exchange. In addition I have solicited the views of OTS. 2. Since we have been indirectly involved in the work of the Task Force, we have no comment on the accuracy, detail or content of the article. We do believe that it is unclassified. 3. While we do not oppose the publication of the article in the DDA Exchan e, we question whether this is the proper media. As you cnow the DCI is obligated to report to Congress the results of his search for unwitting victims of drug testing by the CIA. We understand that a final report to Congress is in preparation. Because of the public interest in drug testing we anticipate that the DCI's report will be made public by the Congress or at least refer to the report in the press. As a result the Agency can expect queries by the press and FORA requests for copies. In fact there are two current FOIA requests by Stephan C. Kozachik, Regional Director for the Citizens Commis Human Rights, for information such ~T~TIN TL as contained in the article. It is believed that the article on the work dings of the Task Force might serve such requests if it is a stand-alone publication. If the article is part of the DDA Exchan e, under an FOIA request portions of the Exchange woul e enied and thus raise unnecessary questions as to full disclosure, even though the material denied is unrelated. It has been suggested that the Approved For Release 2002/01/08: CIA-RDP86-001148000100080004-8 Approved For Release 2002/01/08: CIA-RDP86-001148000100080004-8 article and the DCI's report to Congress be published as a DCI paper. One media for this could be the DCI Notes, however the article is a little long for that vehicle. ~T~TIN TL 4. Since representa OGC, OLC and Public Affairs have reviewed the article, I am sending them copies of this memorandum or in ormation. ~T~TINTL ~T~TINTL CC: OGC OLC OPA etu DDA IPD ~T~TINTL DD Attached: Proposed Article for DDA Exchange Approved For Release 2002/01/08: CIA-RDP86-001148000100080004-8 STATINTL Approved For Release 2002/01/08 :CIA-RDP86-001148000100080004-8 Approved For Release 2002/01/08 :CIA-RDP86-001148000100080004-8
