Panel on Streamlining Pentagon to Get Report
- Share via
WASHINGTON — Members of the Blue Ribbon Commission on Defense Management will meet today and Thursday to receive a report on implementation of its recommendations for streamlining Pentagon procedures.
White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said Tuesday that when the commission submitted its recommendations last year, President Reagan asked its chairman, industrialist and former Deputy Defense Secretary David W. Packard, to return later for an update.
Fitzwater said Packard and the other members of the now-disbanded commission will be briefed by officials of the Defense Department, Joint Chiefs of Staff and Office of Management and Budget as well as representatives of industry and others.
