    Executive Director

      Executive Exchange                                       126826

    Dear Mrs. Walker:

         Subject: Overview of the President's Commission on
                   Executive Exchange Program (GAO/GGD-85-50)

         At the request of several members of the Senate Committee
    on Governmental Affairs, we reviewed the President's Commission
    on Executive Exchange (PCEE) program. Our review disclosed
    weaknesses in the Commission's conflict of interest policies and
    procedures which the requestors suggested we bring to your
    attention. In addition, we noted that the Commission is not
    evaluating the program to determine whether program objectives
    are being met or that participants are meeting contractual
    requirements regarding employment restrictions after completing
    the program. On January 30, 1985, and again on March 19, 1985,
    we met with you and your deputy to discuss our conclusions and
    recommendations and you agreed to take corrective actions. The
    details on our conclusions and recommendations and the correc-
    tive actions you proposed are discussed in the following
    sections.

    BACKGROUND

         The PCEE program was created by President Johnson in 1969
    by Executive Order 11451. The program was intended to promote
    federal government and private sector understanding and coopera-
    tion through the placement of promising young executives from
    the government and the private sector in positions offering
    challenge and responsibility in the other sector. President
    Carter modified the program in 1979 by Executive Order 12136
    which deleted the requirement that participants be young and
    extended the program to promising executives . . . who have
    demonstrated the ability to rise to high management positions.
    Participants were to be placed in positions in the other sector
