The Chairman emphasized the preliminary nature of the
discussion of this item. After referring to a recent communication

draft directive in general terms, and made various suggestions. In

ments to paragraphs 2 d and 3 a with which the members tentatively
concurred. In connection with certain questions raised with. respect
to the related review of NSCID No. 8, the Chairman stated that the
preliminary IAC-USCIB consideration of NSCID No. 1 should precede
any similar review of NSCID No. 8, but noted that NSCID No. 1 and
NSCID No. 8 should receive final IAC-USCIB approval at the same
time and be submitted together to the NSC.

revisions, furt should meet with a group composed of
