Abstract
For a licci ideal in a power series ring over a field, it is shown that its conormal module has a free summand precisely when the ideal is a hypersurface section. Using results of B. Ulrich, in the Gorenstein case one can show, up to deformation, that the conormal module is indecomposable.
