OFFICE OF LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
Tuesday - 14 February 1978
1. I LEGISLATION Spoke with Mr. James.
Robinson, at the Department o Justice, regarding the Department's
proposed amendment to our proposed legislation regarding the Director's
firearms authority. Mr. Robinson indicated the Department felt strongly
that the limitation which it was proposing regarding the Director's authorit'~?
to designate certain Agency personnel for firearms protection, was viewed
as an important limitation on this authority, and that, in the absence of
strong argument to the contrary, the Department would insist that this
limitation remain in the proposal. Mr. Robinson did agree, however,
that the Department would concur in a further change.to its proposal to
make clear that the authority to designate personnel for firearms protection
could extend to an acting Director or Deputy Director.
