MEMORANDUM FOR: Acting Director of Central Intelligence
FROM: Director, Office of Legislative Liaison
SUBJECT: Weekly Report for Period Ending 10 February 1984
1. On Tuesday, 7 February, John Stein, Deputy Director for Operations,
will appear before a joint hearing held by Subcommittees of the House Post
Office and Civil Service and Judiciary Committees. The subject of this
closed session hearing is the effect of unauthorized disclosures of
intelligence information on U.S. national security.
2. On Wednesday, 8 February, at 9:00 a.m. you are scheduled to
appear before the Legislation Subcommittee of the House Permanent Select
Committee on Intelligence to testify at a public hearing on our FOIA
legislation. All other witnesses testifying on this legislation.are
scheduled to appear on the same day following you.
3. Our office worked closely with representatives of the Department
of Justice and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) to
ensure that Agency equities were fully protected from the recent efforts
of Senators Metzenbaum (D., OH) and Bumpers (D., AK) to prohibit the
recording of telephone conversations by federal officers and employees.
An obvious response to the press accounts of the telephone recording
practices of USIA Director Wick, the Metzenbaun Amendment sought to
amend federal criminal law to prohibit. similar practices. Because the
Metzenbaun Amendment was an ill-conceived and hastily-executed legislative
solution affecting a complex area of federal criminal law, the amendment
generated bipartisan opposition and was voted down on Thursday,
2 February, by a vote of 41-51. As a safeguard, however, our office
had provided the SSCI with substitute language that would have protected
intelligence equities should the Amendment have succeeded.
