Subsequently, Ms. Yates called saying that Chairn:ra.n Diggs wanted
to invite the "Africa Group," consisting of some 15 members,who have a
strong interest in African matters. I pointed out tha.1: since this was to be
an informal session, we wanted to be assured that no member would feel
free on procedural grounds to discuss classified information which could
not be revealed under Committee .rules if it was a. formal session and
I received such assurances. On that basis and in. response to her query,
I told her that widening the audience would not affect the substance of
our briefing. I also recommended that our intelligence briefing he
separated from the group's session with Edward Mulcahy, Deputy
