This series contains materials related to the development, publication, and implementation of agency consumer representation plans. Under the direction of President Gerald R. Ford, the Office of Consumer Affairs collaborated with 17 federal agencies to develop consumer representation plans. These plans contained a description of current consumer-related activities and new policies to increase consumer involvement in decision-making and program development.
Following an initial discussion of the plan's purpose and structure, each agency submitted its consumer representation plan proposal for publication. To promote public discussion, the Office of Consumer Affairs held a series of consumer conferences and hearings across the country. The President's initiative was also subject to a Congressional Oversight hearing. The transcripts for these events are included in the White House Regional Conferences subseries and the Hearings subseries. The feedback received during the 90 day comment period comprises the Public Comment subseries, which includes general and agency specific comments. In the final phase of the plan, the agencies submitted working drafts for evaluation and the final editions were published. Materials relating to the logistics of publication and implementation are included in the Final Consumer Representation Plans subseries.

Most of the documents are from the Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford administrations, although a few documents originating in Lyndon Johnson's administration and one segment regarding the 1963 coup against Ngo Dinh Diem are also present. The bulk of the materials in this series are "backchannel" cables between the U.S. ambassadors in Saigon (Henry Cabot Lodge, Ellsworth Bunker, and Graham Martin, successively) and the President's national security advisers (McGeorge Bundy, Henry Kissinger, and Brent Scowcroft, successively) regarding the situation in South Vietnam or the peace negotiations. In addition, there are State Department cables, usually between the Secretary of State and the U.S. ambassador in Saigon; talking points prepared for meetings between the ambassador and South Vietnamese officials, mainly President Nguyen Van Thieu; reports and memoranda of conversations of those meetings; drafts of speeches and proposed agreements prepared by both sides; military situation reports; and intelligence reports.
The largest segment of the series consists of communications between Ambassador Ellsworth Bunker and National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger during the period of the Paris peace talks. They include Kissinger relaying to Bunker details of his secret talks with the North Vietnamese in Paris, and later the formal Paris peace negotiations, including drafts of proposed agreements and negotiations over signing procedures; Bunker's prepared talking points for meetings with President Thieu to relay that information, and his reporting to Kissinger of Thieu's reaction to the information; "think pieces" by both Bunker and Kissinger on the situation in Vietnam and the strategy for handling President Thieu; and post-ceasefire diplomatic maneuvering, implementation of the agreements, and handling of allegations of ceasefire violations. The ambassador also transmitted drafts of major Nixon speeches regarding the peace negotiations to Thieu and relayed Thieu's reaction.
Graham Martin's communications with Kissinger and Brent Scowcroft deal primarily with implementation of the ceasefire, violations of the ceasefire, the question of aid to South Vietnam and congressional relations centered around that issue, contacts with South Vietnamese officials, and the deterioration of the "peace" and the eventual evacuation of South Vietnam by the Americans. Many of the cables relate to diplomatic relations with other countries regarding the situation in Vietnam, including the Soviet Union, Saudi Arabia, France, and the members of the International Commission of Control and Supervision in Vietnam. The cables range from topics as specific as arrangements for the evacuation of certain individuals to philosophical discourses by Martin on the history of U.S. involvement in Vietnam and his role in it.
Some, but not all, letters between Presidents Nixon or Ford and President Thieu are present in these files.
The nearly 200 pages of material dating from Henry Cabot Lodge's tenure as U.S. ambassador to South Vietnam under President John F. Kennedy relate primarily to events, beginning in August 1963, leading up to the November 1963 coup and assassination of President Diem of South Vietnam. They consist mainly of communications between Henry Cabot Lodge and Secretary of State Dean Rusk or McGeorge Bundy, national security adviser, regarding meetings with South Vietnamese officials, intelligence reports, evaluations of the situation, and instructions from Washington.
