        REFERENCE:       Memo .for DCI fr C/HRG, dtd 13 June 96,
                         Same Subject


             (U) This memorandum provides background information for a
        meeting between you and the JFK Assassination Records Review Board
        (ARRB), which is scheduled for 16 October 1996 in your office
        between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m.  The meeting was requested by ARRB
        Chairman, John Tunheim .as a courtesy call.

             (U) Backaround:  Mr. Tunheim, recently appointed a federal
        judge in Minnesota, asked that he and the other four Board members
        have an opportunity to provide you with a brief description of the
        Board's purpose and activities.  The Board's Executive Director,
        David Marwell, and General Counsel, Jeremy Gunn will also parti-
        cipate.  The-ARRB members were appointed by President Clinton in
        1993 as required by statute.  Their principal responsibility is to
        ensure public disclosure of all government records related to the
        assassination of President Kennedy.

             (FOUO) Topics the Board May Discuss:  The Board probably
        will discuss their concern about whether they will be able to
        complete their work by the congressionally-imposed deadline of
        October 1997.  This concern relates to the very time-consuming
        process that the ARRB and its 30-person staff is obliged to use
        in reviewing all of the thousands of relevant documents that are
        redacted, which for CIA comprise the bulk of our documents.

             (FOUO) The Board may also seek your personal commitment to
        continue the Agency's dedication of resources--people and
        computer capability--to the review of JFK documents.  CIA has
        worked closely with the Board and its staff from the beginning.
