SUBJECT:


Release of  sw               i    Pursuant To
Request of Assassination  Records  Review Board


      1.  Action Required:   None; this brief is  for information
only  regarding a required  release pursuant to the  request of the
Assassination  Records Review  Board (ARRB or JFK  Board).  This
release  has been coordinated  with the DO JFK  Focal Point Officer,
the DA  Information Review  Officer, the Office of  General Counsel,
and required  external bodies;  it is scheduled  for transfer to the
ARRB  for release to the National  Archives on or  about 17 April.


     2.   Background:  The Oswald  Security File, maintained   by
the Office  of Security, surfaced  in February 1997  as our JFK
records  review personnel were  responding to the ARRB's  Request
for Additional  Information  and Records No. CIA-16  (Oswald Pre-
Assastination  Files), dated  28 January 1997.  Before  this, the
file had been  reviewed in  1978 by the House Special  Committee on
Assassination  (HSCA).  Unfortunately,  and probably  by oversight,
the file  was not included  in the so-called JFK sequestered
collettion' and  thus had not been  included to date in  our
releases  to the ARRB.  In any  event, however, approximately  92%
of the documents  therein are  duplicative of documents  previously
released  elsewhere in the JFK  collection by CIA.



At  the conclusion of its investigation, the House Select Committee on
Assassination (HSCA) sequestered all of the files that the HSCA staff had
requested or been granted access. This sequestered collection includes 63
boxes of hardcopy records and notes and 72 reels of microfilm.
