MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Security
THROUGH : Chief, Executive and Planning Division
SUBJECT : Federal Personnel Manual
System Letter No. 736
1. Referenced letter establishes minimum standards
covering the scope and coverage of full field investigations for
critical-sensitive positions, such standards to be binding on
all agencies which make competitive appointments and which
conduct full field investigations in connection therewith.
2. Attached is a copy of a memorandum dated 25 October
1968, in which the Chief, Investigations Division, commented
on FPM Letter No. 736 in relation to our own investigative
policies and procedures. It is my opinion that we operate
under the same general guidelines as set forth in FPM Letter
No. 736. Our coverage in many cases will be more compre-
hensive in scope, but will not go beyond the limits established
by the referenced letter, which permits expanded coverage
where circumstances so warrant. It is, therefore, my conclu-
sion that there is no necessity for issuing any new regulations
or directives with respect to employment-type investigations.
