(S/ORCON) In reply to reference (a), I have reviewed. the minutes of the 24 August 1978 meeting of the DoD Committee on Remote Viewing. I share your concern that the current require- ments and funding may not be sufficiently coordinated and will provide support by the Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI) and Naval Intelligence Command. (NAVINTCOM) as appropriate to better coordinate future efforts. 2. (S/ORCON) With regard to Navy representation on the proposed committees/groups, ONI/NAVINTCOM will provide representation as appropriate. Enclosure (1) to reference (a) was not entirely clear as to whether the existing DoD Committee on Remote Viewing would be replaced. by the proposed Advisory Committee. I would suggest that the policy guidance be provided by a group comprised of the Service Deputy ACSIs and. the Working Group consist of highly qualified scientific advisors to the Service ACSI's. 3. (S/ORCON) I am unable at this time to pledge a specific level of funding support. It would appear that basic research funds should. be applied to this effort until the results warrant the application of advanced research resources. I shall attempt to identify a source of basic research funds with which to pursue this effort. CLASSIFIED BY OPNAVINST S5513.4 EXEMPT FROM G.D.S.
