            MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Director

            THROUGH:        Director, Center for the
                            Study of Intelligence

            FROM:           John F. Pereira
                            Chief, Historical Review Group

            SUBJECT:        Appointment of Directorate Focal Points
                            for JFK Assassination Board Requests


                1.  It is recommended that you request the-Directorates
            to appoint focal point officers for purposes of responding
            to requests from the  (President Kennedy) Assassination
            Records Review Board.

                2.  Background

                    President Clinton appointed the Board to oversee  the
            release of records related to both the assassination of
            President Kennedy and the investigations into the
            assassination.  The Board has forwarded to us the first
            (attached) of what are likely to be many requests for
            additional information from CIA records.

                    The Historical Review Group  (HRG) has reviewed more
            than 400,000 pages of JFK-related records, most of which
            were contained in the sequestered records that were
            collected for the House Assassination Committee's
            investigation and in the Oswald 201 file.  Up to now, no new
            searches have been required. Now that the Board has begun to
            generate requests for additional information, the Agency
            needs to create a mechanism fo processing the requests and
            for tasking components to conduct records searches.

                    It is probably advisable to have HRG continue to
            serve as principal liaison with the Board.  HRG could
            continue to receive the Board's requests and to be
            responsible for coordinating responses from CIA.   (Another
            option would be to assign someone elsewwhere to be the
            principal liaison and restrict HRG's role to that of
            reviewing documents for declassification and assisting with
            coordination.)
