               MEMORANDUM FOR    Deputy  Director for Operations

                                 General  Counsel

               FROM           :  S. D. Breckinridge

               SUBJECT           Planning  for the Final HSCA Report


                    1.  We have asked the  HSCA to arrange to give us
               sections of its report at  different times to facilitate
               our review and response.  There  has been no response to
               this request although  it has been made both in writing
               and orally.

                    2.  The Memorandum of  Understanding with the Committee
               provides that the Committee  will notify the DCI in writing
               of its desire to disclose  any information designated for
               protection by the DCI.  Until  advised to the contrary
               (and we will try to clarify  it) our working assumption
               is that the submission of  the final report to us will
               constitute a written notice  of the desire to have the material
               in that report published.   If the Committee does not receive
               a response within five days,  objecting to this and stating
               the reasons, then the Committee  may disclose the information.
               There are provisions for  subsequent exchanges on the point
               but the key provision  is the first five-day period.

                    3.  As a practical matter  we will have two separate
               reviews to conduct--a security  review and a substantive
               review.  We probably should  plan to conduct the two reviews
               at the same time.  Our  formal agreement clearly provides
               for our right to take a  stand in opposition to disclosure
               of sensitive material.  We  have been told that the Committee
               will also  receive and  consider any factual corrections
               that we offer and any  statements of disagreement that we
