The provision in 1-704 could then be eleted unless a provision concerning the Secretary of De ense, similar to 1-301(y), is included in both 1-3 and lr9 or is placed only in 1-9. 1-607 on coordination of clandestine collection wording of 1-807 in E.O. 12036 be retainedlas follows: "1-607. Coordinate the collection outside the United States of intelligence information not otherwise obtainable." -103, 3-201, 3-202, 3-204, 3-205 concerns reports on +jueations o eqa sty or pro riet The issue here is whether the additioi of the word "serious" is necessary and prudent. The c ange would almost certainly be publicly perceived as a weake ing of the require- ment for reporting questionable activities The use of the term "serious" would be particularly diffi ult to explain in relation to questions of legality. 4-222 on special activities As discussed in the May 7 meeting of he IG, we suggest that the definition of "special activities be clarified as follows: The proposed language is confusing. a suggest that the "Special activities meags activities c'nducted in support of national foreign policy obectives abroad which are planned and executed so that the role of the United States Government is not apparent or acknow- ledged publicly, and functions in support of such activities, but which Ore not intended to influence U.S. public opinion or policies and do not include diplomatic activities or the collection and production of intelligence or related support functions." d'KL4 Deputy Assistart Secretary for Intelligence Coordination Bureau of Intel1ligence and Researct Approved For Release 2008/07/21: CIA-RDP87B01034R000200030005-6
