MEMORANDUM FOR: All OLL Employees
FROM: Charles A. Briggs
Director, Office of Legislative Liaison
SUBJECT: Organizational Changes
1. The close of the 98th Congress provides an appropriate
time to express my appreciation to all of you for the fine
work you have done during this session. It also is a time to
put in place some organizational changes designed to
strengthen our capabilities to meet the challenges of the 99th
Congress.
2. The changes, which are expressed in detail in the
attachment to this paper, deal principally with Liaison
Division, and are intended to (a) strengthen our basic
House-Senate orientation, (b) provide a greater integration of
the knowledge and talents of personnel on rotation who have
come to OLL with a wealth of information about some function
or organization of the Agency, and (c) provide for maximum
flexibility and coverage of functional duties in a period of
growing requirements.
3. The principal changes involve the creation of an
Administrative Staff which combines the work of the
Administrative Officer and the Registry functions, and the
creation of a Deputy Chief of the Liaison Division. Other
changes involve the assignment of officers who have focal
point responsibilities for administration matters, finished
intelligence, operations and for constituent mail to fixed
positions within the House and Senate Branches. This last
move is not intended to dilute the responsibilities of these
officers for their expertise or to lessen in any way their
responsibilities for serving as points of liaison with
assigned Agency components. What it is intended to do is
assure that the Chiefs of the House and Senate Branches have

under their commands individuals who have the necessary
functional expertise to be able to represent this Agency to
the Congress and the Congress to the Agency in the most
effective way possible. We are also creating an Executive
Officer/Liaison position in Liaison Division to facilitate the
management of information and clerical support.
4. These organizational changes are effective
immediately. They will be the basis for an OLL position
classification and management review to be conducted by a team
from the Office of Personnel beginning in mid-November. The
organizational changes do involve the change of some position
titles and requests for some grade changes, and these things
will be subject to the upcoming review.
5. A time of change is often frightening for those
involved in it. Let me assure each of you that these changes
are only intended to strengthen this organization by giving
everyone the opportunity to expand the use of their individual
talents. And we will continually fine tune the system to
insure that it does just that.
