SUBJECT:    ARRB   Questions Submitted for DO Briefing

I would like to address some of the concerns that you expressed at our meeting
yesterday, where we briefly discussed the Review Board's Proposed Questions for the
March  17 briefing regarding DO records. We understand that you have some concerns
about the scope of the topics raised. We very much appreciate your recognition of the
importance that we attach to the ARRB's independence and we again wish to
emphasize the fact that we fully understand your proper concern for the protection of
information that is unrelated to the Kennedy assassination.

I would like to emphasize that the questions that we sent to you were not intended as in
depth research queries, but rather as topical talking points for discussion. We prepared
the questions, at your request, in order to give the persons conducting the briefing an
understanding of the types of issues in which we were interested. They represent issues
that we wish to explore in our quest for additional information and records to facilitate
the completion of the ARRB's responsibilities under the JFK Act.

We  appreciate your acknowledgment that the ARRB is not necessarily obligated to
justify to CIA the questions it deems relevant to the assassination. Nevertheless, in
order to facilitate and coordinate our efforts, we are very willing to offer the following
additional explication of those questions that we understand may have been considered
by the Agency to be excessively broad.
