The attached letter for your signature points out the need for more input on leak cases from DoD and asks Mr. Weinberger's views on a DCI-hosted interagency seminar on leaks. Regarding the former, the UDAC receives little data on leaks from other agencies except when it has requested action from other agencies. Regarding the latter, the interagency seminar has been in.~fn, embryonic planning stage for more than a year, but we have lacked personnel to bring it to fruition. If the Secretary of Defense indicates his support, we should move ahead with a one-day program at the CIA HQS building as soon as possible, probably in January 1987. 3.

Weinberger The Secretary of Defense Washington, D.C. 20301 Dear Cap: Your letter of 14 November commenting on the Unauthorized Disclosure Analysis Center's Summary was most encouraging. As you know the publication's purpose s to stimulate the interest and action of senior officials regarding the "leak" problem. Your hope that we can resolve more of these i f cases s ervently shared. The effectiveness of the Unauthorized Disclosure Summar as a baseline on the anti-leak effort would be great y en ance y specs is input from DoD and others on the numbers of investigations of unauthorized disclosure of classified intelligence and the disposition of such cases. I agree fully with your observation that coordinated efforts will help shut down leaks and id tif en y the culprits. The UDAC has had under consideration for some time a seminar on unauthorized disclosures. It is envisioned as a forum for leak investigators, security officers, legal counsel, public affairs officers and others concerned with revelations of classified information in the media. Specific sessions on the various facets of the problem would facilitate an exchange of information and perhaps the development of new and unified courses of action to alleviate classified leaks. Because the vigorous participation of the Department of Defense would be invaluable to such a program, I would appreciate your views hnfnrn nr.nreeil4.... Yours, ~'sJ" ~~ William J.

Casey Direotor of Central Intelligence Washington, D.C. 20505 (C) The first monthly report by your Unauthorized Disclosure Analysis Center in its revised format is impressive. It will serve as an effective baseline document to coordinate our efforts, especially among intelligence producers and users, to shut down leaks and identify the culprits. (C) As we refine our approach to concentrate our pursuit of offenders, I hope that we can close more cases by resolving them with disciplinary measures which make clear to others in and out of Government that we take this matter very seriously.
