Weekly Report
Directorate of Administration
-- The Director of Personnel (D/OP) met with senior 0MB officials to discuss
the Agency's retirement proposal forwarded to 0MB earlier in the week. The
meeting provided an excellent opportunity to further elaborate on the
Agency's needs in a retirement program, various benefits included in the
legislation, the differences and similarities between the Agency proposal
and Senator Stevens' plan, and the Agency's plan to resolve security
concerns. While the 0MB representatives had several questions about the
retirement proposal, none was unanticipated. Agreement was reached that
0MB needed more time to review the legislation and that the Agency would
provide some additional information in such areas as funding, cost of
benefits, etc. It was also agreed that we must continue to move forward
but not ahead of Senator Stevens' legislative effort. Additional meetings
will be scheduled with 0MB on this effort.
