C. Re last isutenc of recommendat 4, Cqyne
said that this was aimed at CIA.. Be pointed out that me
have bad some very good men on the survey tease but that
this had apparently caused concern to some foreign
governeents lest we were using the teams as cover for
intelligence operations. Bence Coyne felt that CIA
people should not be on the teams.
d. R* Conclusion 13 that there should be a centralised
monitoring of disclosures, i.e. that any disclosure* should
be reported to the MICC Secretariat, does this bother anybody?
If carried out literal, it would mean our reporting periodically
to 313.4(ICC any disclosures of classified military information
which we make for our one purpoees. However, note that
recommendations 5 and 6athich are designed to carry out this
conclusion seem used primarily at the military agencies.
34 Pat Coyne bee assured as that nothing in the report was
intended /nag, way to infringe on our special responsibilities and
his remark* at Planning Board indicated that he had no particular
criticinm aimed in our direction.
