IN' THE HOUSE . OF REPRESENTATIVES APRIL 21, 1982 Mr. ROSLNTHAL submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Government Operations ES- 0 L T1 U N. To authorize the disclosure of certain classified documents relating to foreign investment in the United States. Whereas the Subcommittee on Commerce, Consumer, and Mon- etary Affairs of the Committee on Government Operations has been examining since 1979 the public policy conse- quences of foreign investment in the United States, includ- ing investments by member nations of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), and the appropri- ate Federal response to such investments; Whereas the subcommittee and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) entered into an agreement on July 12, 1979, govern- ing the procedures for subcommittee use and public release of classified documents relating to OPEC country surpluses and investments; 71. ~`~+;~.'^~~c.=dam ~.`~=?~,- i'gg Approved For Release 2007/03/03: CIA-RDP83M00914R002100160046-6 2 Whereas the agreement provides that, in the event that the sub- committee and the CIA cannot resolve a dispute concerning disclosure of information, and the President objects to the disclosure, the subcommittee is required to obtain the per- mission of the House of Representatives to make that dis- closure; Whereas the subcommittee has custody of seventeen CIA docu- ments of significant importance dealing with (1) the difficul- ties of recycling OPEC surpluses; (2) the worldwide distri- bution and placement of OPEC surpluses; (3) OPEC coun- try investment patterns and strategies; and (4) the impact of OPEC investments on United States national interests, none containing country-by-country data on OPEC invest- ments in the United States; Whereas the subcommittee and the CIA have reached an im- passe on declassification for public release of these seven- teen CIA documents; and the President on February 17, 1982, objected in writing to a subcommittee request to de- classify the documents, with deletions to protect intelligence methods and sources; Whereas these seventeen documents present the most thorough analysis within the Federal Government of OPEC invest- ments and their impact on United States national interests, and express concerns not expressed by other Federal agen- cies; and. Whereas without these documents the public and the Congress will receive a one-sided executive branch view of the nature, distribution, and impact of OPEC country surpluses and investments: Now, therefore, be it 1 Resolved, That the House of Representatives finds that 2 release of these documents is in the public interest and is T. . , Approved For Release 2007/03/03: CIA-RDP83M00914R002100160046-6 3 1 essential to a full public understanding of the important issues 2 surrounding OPEC government investments in the United 3 States and concurs in the release of the documents by the 4 Subcommittee on Commerce, Consumer, and Monetary Af- 5 fairs, pursuant to the agreement of July 12, 1979, with dele- 6 tions made by the subcommittee only to protect specific intel- 7 ligence sources and methods. 0 m x ~~: Apve~l' F~el~~~d~7ftt~~ ~17~~~L'~'3~111~~`,1, ~2'10~.~~-~ - `? - '' ~CJ ~+ c?
