Subject: Reports in Response to President's Statement to the Cabinet
on Interagency Committees
I have discussed with the Cabinet Secretary the President's statement on
interagency committees at the February 25 Cabinet meeting. Mr. Busby
has agreed to the following procedures.
1. By March 5 you should submit to the President four (4+) copies of
a complete list of all interagency committees chaired-by your
agency. It will not be necessary to indicate any further
information beyond the name of the committee.
2. About March 13 you will receive from the Bureau of the Budget a
list of committees about whose continued existence questions have
been raised by the White House and this agency. You will also
receive at that time supplementary instructions for the April 30
reports under Circular A-63.
3. By April 30, you should submit a, report to the,'Bureau of the
Budget as required by Circular A-63. This report should include
the information listed in Section 6 of the Circular.
4+. On the basis of the A-63 reports, the Bureau of the Budget will
prepare the information required by the President.
To make it possible to provide this information promptly to the President.,
it is requested that agencies make every effort to adhere to these
deadlines.

1. This concerns the two reports on interagency committees STAT
requested in the February 26th memorandum from Horace Busby,
Special Assistant to the President. I discussed these with W
of BPAM, who pointed out that BPAM had talked on this subject with
the Bureau of the Budget which had agreed all it wanted from CIA was
the USIB subcommittees. The Bureau of the Budget is specifically
named as the requestor of the second of the two reports listed in
Mr. Busby's memorandum. BOB is not mentioned in connection with
the first report, though the two reports seemed related.
2. This afternoon I telephoned Mrs. King, secretary to
Mr. Busby, and asked her whether the Bureau of the Budget's per-
mission to report only USIB subcommittees would also apply to the
first report due March 5th. Mrs. King replied that the two reports
were related and that if BOB was satisfied with only USIB subcommittees
for one, Mr. Busby would also be satisfied with only USIB subcommittees
for the other.
3. Incidentally, Mrs. King said there was a typographical
error in Mr. Busby's memorandum which showed the second report
due by April 3. Mrs. King said this date should be April 30th.
