SUBJECT: Legislation Introduced that Would Affect
CIARDS Mandatory Retirement
1. Attached hereto is a copy of H.R. 1710 which would
remove maximum hiring ages and mandatory retirement ages for
selected Federal employees not covered by the Age
Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967. Section 11 of
this bill refers to CIA employees:
Part D of title II of the Central Intelligence
Agency Retirement Act of 1964 for Certain Employees
(50
U.S.C. 403 note) is amended by striking out section
by redesignating section 236 as 235.
235,
and
2. If enacted this bill would eliminate the Director's
authority to do the following:
SEC. 235. (a) The Director may in his discretion
place in a retired status any participant who has completed
at least twenty-five years of service, or who is at least
fifty years of age and has completed at least twenty years
of service, provided such participant has not less than ten
years of service with the Agency of which at least five
shall have been qualifying service. If so retired, such
participant shall receive retirement benefits in accordance
with the provisions of section 221.
(b) Any participant in the system receiving
compensation at the rate of grade GS-18 or above shall be
automatically separated from the Agency upon reaching the
age of sixty-five. Any participant in the system receiving
compensation at a rate less than grade GS-18 shall be
automatically separated from the Agency upon reaching the

age of sixty. Such separation shall be effective on the
last day of the month in which a participant reaches age
sixty or sixty-five, as specified in this section, but
whenever the Director shall determine it to be in the public
interest, he may extend such participant's service for a
period not to exceed five years. A participant separated
under the provisions of this section who has completed five
years of Agency service shall receive retirement benefits in
accordance with the provisions of section 221 of the Act.
3. The bill, introduced by Congressman Roybal, is
intended to protect employees from the potential adverse
impact caused by mandatory retirement. It has been jointly
referred to the Committees on Post Office and Civil Service
and the District of Columbia. As of this date, the Civil
Service Committee does not intend to pursue the bill. If
this decision is reversed, hearings would be held and all
employee groups who would be affected would be invited to
testify.
