                                                 OCA 1180-92
                                                 2 1 APR 1992



             MEMORANDUM  FOR:  J. Kenneth McDonald
                               Chief, CIA History Staff

             FROM:
                              Deputy Director .of Congressional Affairs

             SUBJECT:         Request  for Access to HSCA Records

             REFERENCE:       Your Memorandum dtd 13 April  1992;
                              Same Subject  (CSI 92-0201)


                  1.  In the reference, you requested approval for all
             members of CSI to have access to all records that CIA holds
             relevant to the HSCA investigation into President Kennedy's
             assassination.  Upon receiving this approval, CSI would
             request affected components to transfer custody of the 64
             boxes of material in question.to CSI.

                  2.  Today, I called Michael O'Neil, Special Assistant
             to the Speaker of the House of Representatives.  Mr. O'Neil
             serves as the focal point for questions arising with respect
             to the segregated HSCA collection.  I informed Mr. O'Neil of
             your request, noted that the DCI had promised an expeditious
             review of these documents, and requested his concurrence to
             proceed with the transfer of custody.  Initially, Mr. O'Neil>
             wondered whether this action would frustrate the purposes of/
             the Joint Resolution currently being considered by the
             Congress.  Specifically, since the documents would be
             provided to a Review Board pursuant to the resolution, would
             transfer at this time to the CSI hinder that purpose?  I
             told Mr. O'Neil that if the Joint Resolution passed in its
             current form, we would instruct the CSI .to transfer the
             holdings to the Board.  If the Joint Resolution did not
             pass, we would have a head start on reviewing the documents.
