THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release
November 15, 1985
The President today announced his intention to appoint
14 members to the President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory
Board (PFIAB) for two-year terms. The Board was recently
reconstituted by the President on October 28, 1985, by

Americans who perform a continuing and objective review of
the performance of the Intelligence community.- The Board -
reports directly to the President, and has full access to all
information necessary to advise the President on the conduct,
management, and coordination of the various agencies of the
Intelligence community.

Intelligence Activities) was first established by President
Eisenhower in 1956. The Board was continued by each President
thereafter until its termination in 1977 by President Carter.

1981, by_Executive Order 12311.
