handle is hein.gao/gaobackmx0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GA United States General Accounting Office Washington, D.C. 20548 1,50 ?0 National Security and International Affairs Division B-256597 March 4, 1994 The Honorable Daniel K. Inouye Chairman The Honorable Frank R. Lautenberg Subcommittee on Defense Committee on Appropriations United States Senate This correspondence responds to your request for preliminary information on the review we are conducting for you on personnel security clearance issues. On February 24, 1994, we briefed your staff on our preliminary analysis of questionnaire data received from executive branch agencies. In summary, the analysis shows that for fiscal year 1993, executive branch agencies spent about $325 million on security clearance investigations, of which about $20 million went to contractors who performed investigations. Also, about 3.2 million employees are reported as having security clearances, of which about 2.3 million are executive branch employees and about 853,000 are contractor employees. It is important to point out that the data collected does not include information from the Central Intelligence Agency. Enclosed are detailed summaries showing estimated agency- by-agency cost data (encl. 1) and aggregate data on the number of security clearances held by executive branch and contractor personnel (encl. 2). As agreed, we will be reporting later this year on these and other issues you asked us to review. Should you have any questions or need further assistance please contact my Associate Director, David Warren, or me at (202) 512-8412. t Donna Heivilin Director, Defense Management and NASA Issues Enclosures - 2 1 GAO/NSIAD-94-135R Personnel Security Investigations
