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.

SELECT COMMITTEE ON INTELLIGENCE

WASHINGTON, DC 20510-6473

The Honorable Leon Panetta Director Central Intelligence Agency Washington, D.C. 20505

Dear Director Panetta:

In a letter dated March 26, 2009, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (the Committee) informed the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of its intention to conduct a thorough review of the CIA's detention and interrogation program. The letter included terms of reference approved by the Committee, as well as a document request.

To conduct our work in a comprehensive and timely matter, the Committee requires access to unredacted materials that will include the names of non supervisory CIA officers, liaison partners, black-site locations, or contain cryptonyms or pseudonyms. We appreciate the CIA's concern over the sensitivity of this information. Our staff has had numerous discussions with Agency officials to identify appropriate procedures by which we can obtain the information needed for the study in a way that meets your security requirements. We agree that the Committee, including its staff, will conduct the study of CIA's detention and interrogation program under the following procedures and understandings:

1. Pursuant to discussions between the Committee and CIA about anticipated staffing requirements, the CIA will provide all Members of the Committee and up to 15 Committee staff (in addition to our staff directors, deputy staff directors, and counsel) with access to unredacted responsive information. In addition, additional cleared staff may be given access to small portions of the unredacted information for the purpose of reviewing specific documents or conducting reviews of individual detainees. These Committee staff have or will have signed standard Sensitive Compartmented Information non disclosure agreements for classified information in the

compartment.
