This week the report of the conferees on the FY '89 authorization bill became available to us. There were no surprises insofar as legislative items were concerned: the conferees essentially adopted each side's proposals. The unclassified portion of the report contains major new reporting requirements for the DCI and the Secretary of Defense concerning narcotics and counterintelligence issues. Quick action is expected on the report when the Congress returns, clearing the measure for Presidential action thereafter. FY '89 Grassley Secrecy Agreement Amendment Adopted. Despite efforts by the Agency, the Executive Branch and the Senate Intelligence Committee staff, the conferees on the FY '89 Treasury, Postal Service and General Government appropriations bill adopted an FY '89 version of the "Grassley amendment" restricting the use of secrecy agreements containing the word "classifiable." Since passage of the FY '88 version and the resulting litigation, the problem has been obviated vis a vis Executive Branch agreements and the district court has held the FY '88 version to be an unconstitutional infringement of the President's power to protect national security. information. Because of this, the only immediate effect of the conferees' action appears to preserve against a claim of mootness an appeal of the district court's decision to the Supreme Court.
