From Charles Donahue
Solicitor of Labor
Subject: Missile Site Public Contracts Advisory Committee Report
Recently the above Committee, sometimes referred to
as the Holland Committee, submitted its report to the Secretary.
This report has been published and has otherwise received rather
wide distribution, ,that most contractors engaged in the missile
& and space program and in furnishing similar services to the Govern-
ment in connection with other programs have became aware of it.
All such parties should be cautioned that although the procedural
recommendations of the Committee are being implemented, the sub-
stantive recommendations with respect to the establishment of
standards for the determination of Davis-Bacon Act coverage are
still under study and have been neither approved nor disapproved
by the Secretary of Labor. It would not be proper, therefore, for
contracting agencies and contractors to rely upon them as a guide
at this time.
Will you please communicate this information to all
affected contractors and contracting officers.
