b. The Agency clearly was insufficiently cautious in the
initiation of its assistance to Mr. Hunt. Later, when the nature of
Mr. Hunt's requests for assistance began to indicate a possible active
involvement by the Agency in activities beyond its charter, the
Agency terminated the relationship and refused further assistance.

c. The preparation of a profile on an American citizen under
these circumstances lies beyond the normal activity of the Agency.
It shall not be repeated -- and I have so instructed the staff. This
shall be made a part of the regulations governing such activities.

d. As Director, I have called for a review of all Agency
activities and the termination of any of which might be considered
outside its legitimate charter. In addition to requesting this
review from my subordinates, I have directed each employee and invited
each ex-employee to submit to me any cases which they may question.
I am determined that the Agency will not engage in activities outside
of its charter but will concentrate its energies on its important
intelligence mission.
