representatives, including OGC and DO, the value and necessity of
reclassifying a 1972 GAO document on narcotics. The document was
originally CONFIDENTIAL but was automatically declassified in 1980. It
was the opinion of CIA and the Drug Enforcement Agency that important
information in the paper should still be classified and so informed GAO.
Chairman Glenn English, House Subcommittee on Government/Information,
Justice, and Agriculture, questioned the value of such action at this
late date and requested ISOO to review the action. = .

public and the circumstances surrounding the case, the consensus of the

sources and methods can be protected in spite of its earlier release. F
