Their options may be: to rapidly scan all remaining material ~ so they can reflect in their final report that they had seen it all; to not finish their review and remand the material to 30 years storage under our Memorandun _of Understanding; to pass the material to the custody of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence for use in developing any needed future legislation, i.e. an intelligence charter. Regardless, I believe we must — prepare all materials for 30 years retention and should be prepared to see the material remanded to a safe storage out of our custody. If the material remains. unreviewed by HSCA staff at the conclusion of their investigation, then the future skeptics may still have a cause celebre.
