MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Administration
erector o n ormation Services
SUBJECT: Proposed Acts That Should Be Specifically Barred With
Foreign Governments for Former CIA Employees 0
1. This memorandum responds to your request in staff meeting on
8 October 1981 to give you our recommendations for acts that would be specifi-
cally barred to former employees who desire an employment association with a
foreign government. I wish to go on record that I am personally opposed to
any attempt by the Agency to circumscribe the actions of former employees,
either resigned or retired after they leave the Agency. I believe this is
an overreaction to the case that is out of all proportion to
the problem. If our laws nee strengthening then Congress should take appro-
priate action rather than the Agency attempting to control employees in their
future endeavors once they have left Agency employment. Such an attempt at
administrative coercion by the Agency would mean nothing to those former
employees such as who ow' gly break the law and who have
complete disregard orethical stan ards.
2. If it is the desire of the EXCOM to develop a document which all
employees would sign as a commitment of employment, I would recommend the
following acts to be barred to former employees:
a. You may not contract with a foreign government to advise or
consult in matters of training for their personnel to handle special
weapons, explosives, and demolitions or for the conduct of sabotage.
b. You may not contract with a foreign government to advise or
consult on building special devices to be used in paramilitary opera-
tions.
c. You may not contract with a foreign government to advise or
consult with their intelligence service on the conduct of covert action
in any form.
d. You may not contract with a foreign government to advise or
consult on the construction or operation of special intelligence
collection equipment such as that used in collection operations for
SIGINT, overhead imagery, or missile electronic emanations.

e. You may not contract with a third party, either an individual
or company, to perform any of the above acts.
3. If this effort becomes a reality, I believe the perception it will
leave in the minds of most employees will have a negative effect on morale
and may cause many employment candidates to decline our offer.
