CBW Future Monitoring Capabilities:
? On 9 November, we met with L_ Ito introduce our
thinking, as represented in the 12 October discussion paper, on the need to
establish a CIPC working group to undertake a comprehensive, systematic review
of ways to enhance the Intelligence Community capability to monitor Soviet
capabilities for chemical, biological and toxin warfare.
? Both fully endorsed the concept, sharing our concern over the
need to sustain momentum in this area long enough to achieve meaningful
progress across a multitasking front. They promised to look over the
discussion paper and provide critical comments quickly. The STAP initiative
on improving analytical reaction time in the event of future Soviet use, as in
Afghanistan and SEA, was briefly discussed. They agreed that, although this
was important, it was only one piece of a much more fundamental gap in extant
intelligence ca abilities.
East Germany; Intelligence Information Needs:
? visited DDI, on Friday to explore the potential for an
East Germany study. would support a study on East Germany and sees a
persistent intelligence gap relating to n1 terna_l__ Political yl namicsf, He would
