Mr. Philip Odeen
National Academy of Public Administration
1120 G Street, N.W. Suite 540

Dear Mr. Odeen;
The Senate Select Committee on Intelligence poses no
objection to your request for deferment from August 1 to
September 1, 1988 for the second interim report on
Intelligence Community personnel management and compensation
systems. Your indication of a more substantive report is a
sound basis for such delay. The Committee understands that
any pending personnel management or compensation actions of
the several intelligence agencies will be addressed in this
report.
The first interim report stated that a personnel review
of the Department of State Bureau of Intelligence and
Research (INR) would be limited due to its small size and mix
of civil and foreign service systems. It is the Committee
view that while INR plays a very important role in the
Intelligence Community, it appears not to be attracting and
retaining the quantity and quality of personnel necessary to
the accomplishment of its mission. Therefore, the Committee
believes that INR should be fully included in the NAPA study.
For your information, the Committee also is requesting
that the DCI task NAPA to include in its final report a
review of NFIP manpower costs; and to make whatever
recommendations deemed appropriate on ways to constrain such
costs without adversely impacting intelligence missions. The
Committee does not view this as any new major undertaking by
NAPA, but rather an inclusion of its observations and
findings on compensations.

The Honorable David L. Boren
Chairman, Senate Select Committee on Intelligence
SH-211 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Chairman Boren,
Section 701 of the Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal
Year 1988 calls for a study by the National Academy of Public
Administration of personnel management and compensation
systems affecting civilian employees of the intelligence
community agencies.
The final report of this study is to be completed by January
20, 1989. The Conference Report to the act calls for two
interim reports, on May.1 and August 1,-1988. Our May report
provided information on the organization of the study and the
results of our preliminary analyses. -Based on this work, it
is clear that the NAPA Panel can provide the Committee with a
far more substantive second interim report if the date for
this report is deferred from August 'l to September 1, 1988.
This matter has been discussed with Mr. Battaglia of the
Committee staff and with Mr. Latimer of the staff of the House
Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. ,Both gentlemen
indicate that this change is possible. We are therefore
making a formal request to change the date of our second
interim report to September 1, 1988.
Favorable consideration of our request will be greatly
appreciated.
Sincerely,
0,11a..
