Dear Scotty:
At various times in the past the Agency has sought authorization
for its current and former employees to be eligible for non-competitive
appointment into the competitive service. We have pursued such action
to gain an equal footing with other government agencies who have been
granted such authority and to eliminate a serious obstacle to our
employees establishing their eligibility for employment elsewhere in
the Federal Government.
The last effort to secure this appointment entitlement was made
by the Agency in 1971-72 and was aimed at obtaining an executive order
similar to the one which gave the Foreign Service competitive appoint-
ment rights in 1965. Eventually, following a series of discussions
between the Agency and the Civil Service Commission, the latter agreed
to prepare and forward an executive order to the Office of Management
and Budget for action. Unfortunately, that order was never issued.
We have recently concluded a comprehensive review of all aspects
of our personnel system, which included a study by consultants of the
National Academy of Public Administration. During the course of our
review, it was concluded that we should again seek authority for
Agency employees to be eligible for non-competitive appointment into
the competitive service. I plan to ask the Agency's Director of
Personnel Policy, Planning, and Management, Mr. Harry E. Fitzwater,

to contact OPM to explore the best means to achieve this objective.
His contact will be facilitated if you can designate the appropriate
official to be called within your office.
In renewing this important effort, I would appreciate receiving
your advice and support.
Sincerely,
/s/ Frank C. Carlueoi

SA/DDCI
Harry,
The DDCI. 'has reviewed your memorandum on
CIA employee non-competitive transfers and,
rather than the DDCI discussing the matter
with the Director of OMB, he suggests the
following.
Prepare a memorandum from him to
Scotty Campbell, Director of OPM, posing
our case and the issues and justifying our
position. Mention that the Director of
Personnel of CIA will be meeting with the
-appropriate people in his agency. You should
then pursue it. When you are blocked or
hung up at the working level in OPM, then
Frank will take it up with Scotty.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: Harry E. Fitzwater
Director of Personnel
Policy, Planning, and Management
SUBJECT: CIA Employees Non-Competitive Transfers to
Other Federal Agencies
1. At the Executive Committee Meeting on 18 December 1979 you
tasked me to determine whether Agency personnel have the same civil
service rights for non-competitive transfers as members of the Foreign
Service. If it were found that they do not, you agreed to discuss the
matter with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget.
2. The answer to the question as to Foreign Service officers'
rights is set forth in Executive Order 11219 of 6 May 1965, attached.
The State Department's Office of Personnel verifies that Foreign
Service officers and employees do indeed have the rights and exercise
them in accordance with the Executive Order. No such rights exist
for Agency employees.
3. It is requested that you discuss this matter with the Director
of the Office of Management and Budget.
