                               RESOLUTION


 
    Commending the CIA's statutory Inspector General on his 5-year 
                         anniversary in office.

Whereas, because of its concern with the need for objectivity, authority and 
        independence on the part of the Central Intelligence Agency's Office of 
        Inspector General, the Senate in 1989 included in the Intelligence 
        Authorization Act of Fiscal Year 1990--subsequently enacted into law--a 
        provision establishing an independent, Presidentially-appointed 
        statutory Inspector General at the CIA;
Whereas in November, 1990, the Honorable Frederick P. Hitz was formally sworn in 
        as the CIA's first statutory Inspector General;
Whereas the CIA's statutory Office of Inspector General, under the capable 
        leadership of Frederick P. Hitz, has demonstrated its independence, 
        tenacity, effectiveness and integrity; and
Whereas the work of the CIA Office of Inspector General under Mr. Hitz's 
        leadership has contributed notably to the greater efficiency, 
        effectiveness, integrity and accountability of the Central Intelligence 
        Agency: Now, therefore, be it
    Resolved, That the Senate expresses its congratulations to 
Frederick P. Hitz on his 5-year anniversary as the first statutory CIA 
Inspector General and expresses its support for the Office of the CIA 
Inspector General.
    Sec. 2. The Secretary of the Senate shall transmit a copy of this 
resolution to Frederick P. Hitz.
                                 <all>
