A week after Congress approved a bill to implement the recommendations of the Sept. 11 commission, a federal advisory panel is set to issue a report calling for sweeping changes in information-sharing among levels of government that could flesh out the Sept. 11 bill's limited provisions on the subject.
Washington should restructure its domestic intelligence efforts to better coordinate information flowing to and from state and local officials and businesses, according to the report, which was obtained by Global Security Newswire.
The document-an unusually comprehensive attempt at addressing deficiencies in the handling and distribution of terrorist information collected at various levels of government-was released Tuesday by experts with the Homeland Security Advisory Council, a panel of mostly state and local
officials that advises the federal homeland security secretary.
