§4863 Use of Cleared Personnel to Ensure Secure Maintenance and Repair of Diplomatic Facilities Abroad

Summary

The Secretary of State must create and use rules so that people with the proper U.S. security clearance do maintenance and repairs in parts of U.S. embassies or consulates abroad where classified material is stored or classified work takes place. This is to protect the security of those areas. The Secretary must also study whether some overseas U.S. sites should only hire contractors with the proper clearance to work in those classified areas. The study must cover, at least, facilities in Cairo, New Delhi, Riyadh, and Tokyo, and the results must be reported to the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee not later than 180 days after February 16, 1990.
