Sports or SIC Subcommittee reports are to be cloned by Chit
through St/PR. prior to the submission of these contributions
to the EIC or SIC Subcommittee representatives. (See Referenced
ERA Procedure, para. 2d.)
b. Upon completion by a subcommittee of a coordinated
report, the subcommittee secretary will forward an information
copy to Chit with an indication of the method and timing of
publication intended (e.g., subcommittee working paper, sub-
committee report etc.).
co ? EIC reports are cleared with Chit by the SIC Secretariat
at the same time that SIC coordination is effected?
d. The only exception to the procedures outlined above is
In connection with the production of the EIC-WG -1 Series, (Bi-
weekly Report on Sitio-Soviet Activities in Underdeveloped Areas).
for which a special procedure has been established?.
10 ERA contributions to other subcommittee activities such as
? priority research deficiency statements., responses to the USIB Committee
on Exchanges, comments on proposed external research projects, etc.,
