Central Intelligence Agency · 2014-07-18 · 57 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This is a report of investigation by the Central Intelligence Agency's Office of Inspector General, dated 18 July 2014. It covers Agency access to Senate Select Committee on Intelligence staff files on RDINet, the network built for the Senate review of the rendition, detention and interrogation program. The report found that five Agency employees improperly accessed the SSCI Majority shared drive and that three IT staff lacked candor. It also found no factual basis for the CIA crimes report against SSCI staff.

## SECRET

# Memorandum of Understanding Senate Select Committee on Intelligence's Review of CIA's Detention and Interrogation Program $ ^{1} $

## 28 May 2009

1. (S) On 26 March 2009, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) informed the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA or Agency) that it plans to conduct a thorough review of the CIA's detention and interrogation program. Included with the SSCI notification were detailed terms of reference and a document request. It is CIA's estimation that compliance with SSCI's requests will involve making available millions of highly sensitive and compartmented Agency responsive documents.

2. (S) As SSCI is aware, in order to further safeguard and compartmentalize intelligence sources, methods, personnel, and liaison relationships, CIA planned on redacting the names of our officers, cryptonyms, pseudonyms, liaison provided intelligence, information originated from other US government organizations, and the identity of black-site locations. SSCI informed the Agency that this very information was critical to a number of SSCI terms of reference and SSCF's overall review. Accordingly, SSCI advised that they were prepared to subpoena the information underlying these proposed redactions.

3. (U//FOUO) In order to avoid protracted litigation over subpoenas and in the spirit of cooperation, CIA has agreed to provide in unredacted form the above-referenced information that we previously sought to redact, under the following conditions:

A. (U//FOUO) Consistent with obligations set forth by Executive Order and Agency policy, CIA will provide responsive information to the minimum number of people who have the requisite need-to-know the information to perform the review. Accordingly, pursuant to discussions between SSCI and CIA about SSCI's anticipated staffing requirements, CIA will afford up to 10 SSCI personnel access to unredacted responsive information.

1 This Memorandum of Understanding relates to responsive documents regarding the SSCI review. As the SSCI review proceeds, additional MOUs may be required to establish agreed upon procedures for nondocumentary aspects of the review.
