Industrial Security The Deputy Director for Science and Technology has referred the Inspector General's Survey of Industrial Security to me for comment on Recommendation 10 therein. This recommendation recommends that the Deputy to the DCI for National Intelligence Programs Evaluation initiate negotiations with a view toward "transfer to the Department of Defense of CIA's responsibility for security review and inspection of Department of Defense contractors under the National Reconnaissance Program or, failing that, seek reim- bursement for the costs to CIA of continuing these functions". In light of the long and painful negotiations which resulted in the recent agreement between the Department of Defense and CIA with regard to the National Reconnaissance Program, it would be most inadvisable for CIA to take the initiative now to alter existing arrangements. I intend to keep CIA's security responsibilities in the NRP under review and will take steps to effect economies when it is appropriate to do so.
