Weekly Report
Directorate of Administration
To meet the DDCPs mandate that applicants for Agency employment are fully cleared
and ready to EOD 120 days after their applications are received at Headquarters,
OP/Employment has implemented a number of measures, some of which have radically
altered practices to which components have long been accustomed.
The Agency's Annual Report of Records Holdings for FY 1984, compiled by the Office
of Information Services, shows that the Agency reduced its net records holdings by
10,700 cubic feet during the past year.
- During the reporting period, the Office of Security completed production of a new

strong CI awareness in his/her activities.
The DDA was briefed on 14 January by the design contractor for the new building on
potential locations for a day care center.

MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: Harry E. Fitzwater
Deputy Director for Administration
SUBJECT: Weekly Report for Period Ending 11 January 1985
1. Progress reports on tasks assigned by the DCI/DDCI:
None.
2. Items/events of interest:
a. To meet the DDCI's mandate that applicants for Agency employment
are fully cleared and ready to EOD 120 days after their applications are
received at Headquarters, Office of Personnel/Employment has implemented a
number of measures, some of which have radically altered practices to which
components have long been accustomed. Copies of applications are now being
sent to components within four days of their arrival. Components must decide
in one week whether to interview the applicant. The interview, whenever
possible, will occur within 14 days, after which the component must make a
hiring decision within 30 days, the remaining 90 days being needed for
security and medical clearances. Additional personnel have been assigned to
processing functions in Employment and a special monitoring unit has been
established to ensure that every applicant file in Employment moves swiftly
and steadily through the complex system of review and decision. In this
regard, the Deputy Director for Employment briefed personnel representatives
from all Agency components concerning new processing procedures.
b. On 3 January, the General Services Administration (GSA) advised
that they plan to sort out the tax reimbursement provisions of the Warner/Wolf
Bill sometime this month. Once that is done and GSA obtains the Office of
Management and Budget and the Internal Revenue Service coordination, they plan
to publish the new tax regulation in the Federal Register. GSA's earliest
estimate for publication is 1 March.
c. The Executive Order for the 6 January Legislative Pay Increase was
received on 2 January. All of the employees' personnel records were updated
over the weekend. This is the first time in the past five years that the
Executive Order has been received before the effective date. 25X1

e. The Deputy Director of Personnel and an Office of Communications
(OC) representative briefed two members of the House Appropriations Committee,
Defense Subcommittee on the implementation of the OC pay banding. The
briefing went well and the meeting concluded with "Good idea; I hope you go 25X1
further with it."
f. The Student Programs Branch, Employment/OP, has provided the DDI
with 125 screened Graduate Fellow applicants for review and possible summer
employment. Among this group is an applicant attending graduate school at
Oxford University as well as a Rhodes Scholar student. Last year, the DDI
received a total of E ]Graduate Fellows. With approximately 45 days left
before the cut-off date (28 February 85) for receipt of applications, we hope
to provide the DDI with additional candidates for the program.
h. The Agency's Annual Report of Records Holdings for FY 1984,
compiled by the Office of Information Services, shows that the Agency reduced
its net records holdings by 10,700 cubic feet during the past year.
i. The Employee Assistance Program of the Office of Medical Services
will be sponsoring weekly support groups for parents during the lunch hour for
the next eight weeks. Some of the subjects that parents have expressed
interest in are: sibling rivalry, parent and careers, dealing with
adolescence, setting priorities, joint versus full custody, single parents,
problems of working mothers, and time management. The first meeting will be
held on 14 January for those with children ages infant to 12 years of age, and
the second meeting will be held on 17 January for those with children 13 to 21.

m. As part of the Office's ongoing effort to recruit security escorts
and Security Protective Officers (SPOs), an advertisement was placed in the 25X1
6 January issue of The Washington Post. It is expected that this
advertisement will further enhance the current complement of 0 security 25X1
escorts and 0 SPOs in process. To date, the Office has received=
responses to the advertisement.
o. During the reporting period, the Office of Security completed
production of a new security awareness videotape dealing with the threat posed
to Agency employees by hostile audio surveillance operations. This 35-minute
videotape was jointly produced by the office of Security's Security Education
Group and the Technical Security Division in close cooperation with the Office
of Training and Education's Media Production Branch. This new presentation
represents a significant state-of-the-art update in the content of the
Office's Hostile Audiosurveillance Briefing program, detailing not only the
threat from specific collection systems, but also emphasizing the importance
that each employee develop a strong countermeasure discipline in his/her
individual activities.

DCI WEEKLY REPORT
PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICE
Attached is the PAO year-end annual statistical report of our efforts on
the Agency's behalf. You may find it of some interest.
Attachment:
As stated

 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/02/23: CIA-RDP87M00539R003004880013-2
The year-end statistical review of PAO activities reveals some
interesting things. In 1984 we received 7360 inquiries of all kinds from the
public and media, only 13 fewer than in 1983--remarkable consistency. The
2030 answers we prepared in response to public mail received was an increase
of nearly 700, up 51 percent over 1983. The quality of responses was also
enhanced by the improved quality and variety of off-the-shelf informational
materials PAO maintains for public distribution.
PAO in 1984 processed 290 requests for you, the DDCI or others to accept
speaking engagements, 95 of which were honored, roughly a 20 percent increase
in overall activity.
On the media side, we received far fewer requests for interviews of you
or other senior officials--89 down from 166--probably due to the diversions of
the election year. Only 12 interviews were granted. Media requests for
one-on-one background briefings by our analysts, however, was on a par in 1984
with the previous year--104 vs. 115. We honored 42 of these in 1984, 40 in
1983.
PAO itself provided 273 briefings in 1984 (up from 247, a 15 percent
increase) to public and academic groups, training groups, foreign liaison,
other government organizations, and scores of specialized activities of
interest to CIA.
We prepared 26 speeches for you and the DDCI, up from 19 in '83.
Our media research-and-services group in 1984 increased its '83 output by
nearly 50 percent, servicing 4211 requests for data from the newsclip
library. This may indicate an increasing level of interest in media reporting
in more sectors of the Agency.
Publications Review Board activity seems to have leveled off after
several years of dramatic rises to reach today's rate: 279 reviews in '84 vs.
274 in '83.
