Below are the highlights of the discussion:
-- Section ?101. With respect to the classified nature of
the 'ICIStaff budget in fiscal year 1984, mike O'Neil
:indicated that this issue already had.been raised in budget
hearings. .
-- Section 103. There was . considerable discussion of the
personnel ceiling adjustments provision. It appears likely,;
that the Committee :.st:aff ?will recommend that the
legislative history for this: provision indicate'that the
Committee would expect consultation on the part of the DCI
before use of the authority.
Section 203. O'Nei'l .indicated that the :HPSCI already:
had made an overture to the House -Armed Services Committee
in.connection with the issue. of three star rank for the
?Director of the Intelligence Community Staff. .It.was clear
that the:HPSCI'would prefer the Armed Services Committee to
takerthe lead.-on this: issue, preferably by securing an
additional 'three .star ' billet for the incumbent Director: of
the Inftelligence Community Staff. The CIA and IC.Staff
representativesemphasized the fact that the language
proposied in the 'draft Fiscal,Year 11984 Intelligence
:Authorization Bill would have ;the,:advantage of resolving
;this piroblem for the.incumbent Director of the IC Staff ..as
well as for any future similar situa.tions..;O'Neil made 'it
clear that the HPSCI was committed to resolving the problem'.'
with.resped t:to the current Director of the IC Staff., and
that it was merely a question of,how this, could mostexpe
ditiously,be accompli"shed. O'Neil: said, that the proposal
contained inthe draft Fiscal Year , 1984. Intelligence
Authorization :Bill would certainly not be ruled out
Sec.tion`.401. O'Neil's.initi;al questions on this section
'indicated"that he .b.elieved"that it had something to .do ..with
Social: Security reform legislation. Although there,,was
considerable discussion of-the intent.and meaning of..the
age criteria for operational .popitions proposal,'it did not.,
d it is
.appear that.the?HPSCI staff.fully understood
