Amendment of Confidential Funds Regulations
GG: 00 - CFR
1. As a result of discussions and determinations which have
been made based on the recent audit of entertainment accounts in
the Finance Division, Special Support Staff, it is desired to
recommend that Page 17 of the Confidential Funds Regulations be
revised to read as follows:
"Purpose and nature of entertainment, the number of
persons, the names of participating CIA employees and
the guests entertained (or in lieu of the latter
a statement to the effect that the names of guests
entertained are on file in the operating office and
will be available for examination by an appropriate
official upon reques , a description of e r
occupations or the capacities in which the persons
entertained were acting, or other data acceptable
to the Certifying Officer.
a. No reimbursement will normally be allowed for
the expenses of entertaining officers or employees of
the United States Government exclusively. However,
where such persons necessarily are present or incidental
to the contacting of other individuals or the procurement
of confidential information or special services, such
expenses may be allowed. For entertainment meals within
the continental United States the shall be deducted
or each CIA employee presen . The official presenting
the c azm or reimbursement shall make approyriatee deductions
on the Voucher for each CIA o icial entertaine tertained. Each
Assistant Director concerned may authorize a similar policy
outside the continental United States where deemed appropriate.
b. Official entertainment expenses incurred by an
officer or employee at an overseas post to maintain social
prestige by reason of his official position will not be
included or paid on vouchers for reimbursement of enter-
tainment expenses. Expenses of the above nature will be
reimbursed by means of the representation allowance
provided for in 6.311.

2. It is believed that this revision of the applicable portion
of Section 7.2 of the Confidential Funds Regulations as recommended
above will rectify some of the weaknesses which were covered by
the audit report. It will also tend to assist the Finance Division
in administering the regulations pertaining to entertainment and
will result in more appropriate reimbursement and uniformity in
the application of the rules and procedures.
3. The underscoring indicates new wording.
