Spiers Under Secretary for Management Department of State Ron, Thanks for the luncheon invitation. Despite the passion displayed on some topics of discussion, it was a useful session.. I have tried to give Bob an opening in para 6 of the attached memo- randum to sidestep the issues of procedural, technical, and personnel security concerns and to work with me in an auditing/monitoring/ inspection program this year that deals with his concerns, his priorities. Contrary to 'his protestations, I do care about his and the Department's concerns. On the other hand, I do not have the right to renounce unilaterally that part of the President's instructions that cover physical, personnel, etc., security issues. We can delay approaching these sensitive areas until we build some confidence by working together. _ Attachment: As stated Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/11/14 :CIA-RDP89G013218000500090005-4 Declassified in Part -Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/11/14 :CIA-RDP89G013218000500090005-4 Q Next 36 Page(s) In Document Denied STAT Declassified in Part -Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/11/14 :CIA-RDP89G013218000500090005-4
