Any subsequent changes can be surfaced and tabled by the CIPC Members on 17 June. - In order to provide the members sufficient time to review the Mobile Missile Study before the CIPC Meeting, we are making a concerted effort to have a draft report for your review by COB Wednesday or early Thursday. The secretaries will be working late this evening (Tuesday, 4 June) to incorporate any changes that surface from today's MMP Meeting, and the staff officers are assisting Jim and Ed where needed. - I am optimistic that we can get the report to the members this week. ? Drafting also continues on the Follow-up Narcotics Report.

Paul has been devoting time to reviewing intelligence reporting related to narcotics of the last several years. The results, if worthwhile, will be used in the Follow-up Narcotics Study. ? Last week Paul'visited with personnel from LTG Tice's office in the Pentagon. General Tice is heading the effort in OSD to coordinate a request from law enforcement officials for DoD support. During the visit, Paul learned that a DoD-wide working group is being formed to review DoD's Narcotics Intelligence: role in combating narcotics. DoD intelligence will be represented by CsI, rather than DIA. ? George introduced Paul to members of the DEA Office of Intelligence on 22 May. As you may recall, OIA has had a liaison officer assigned tote DEA since the fall of 1983. It is an effective liaison relationship that has significantly contributed to an increased understanding by the CIA of DEA needs and the ability of the OIA to support those needs. ? On 23 May, George and Paul attended the NIO Warning Meeting for Narcotics at CIA Headquarters. The following were among the major points discussed at the meeting: 2 TOP SECRET Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/01/04: CIA-RDP89BO133OR000300530017-9 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/01/04: CIA-RDP89BO133OR000300530017-9 - The head of the Department of Justice's (DOJ) Forfeiture and Seizure Division briefed on new legislation which the DOJ will propose making money-laundering a criminal offense and subject to forfeiture of assets both in the US as well as overseas. (It seems reasonably clear that if this proposal is enacted into legislation by the Congress, there is bound to be increased demands for foreign intelligence on financial flows of narcotics monies.) - The US Coast Guard notes that narcotics-related maritime activity in the Caribbean has been at a low ebb over the past several weeks. There may be a correlation between the reduction in maritime trafficking and the current Colombian effort at spray eradication of the northeastern marijuana fields. Jamaica is also engaged in an eradication program which is having some success. No one at the table, however, felt that the evidence was sufficient to warrant such a conclusion at this time. 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 25X1 Soviet Ballistic Missile Defense: ?

The report offers 12 recommendations, 11 of which can be categorized as communications, ADP or training, and are feasible within current or programmed funds. The 12th is a recommendation that all requests for additional personnel or funding--DoD saw the need for more of both--be reviewed by the IICT in the context of a DCI-approved set of counterterrorism objectives and priorities (as recommended by the CIPC study).
