Intelligence Oversight

August 1945 -Army Signals Security Agency approaches commercial telegraph companies for post-war access to foreign governmental traffic

August 1945 to May 1975 - U.S. intelligence obtained copies of international telegrams sent to, from, or through U.S. under SHAMROCK

Early 1960s - 1973 Development of watch lists and the inclusion of names of American citizens

NSA intercepts and disseminates international communications of selected American citizens and groups on based on lists of names supplied by other Government agencies

1969: NSA establishes MINARET to control information collected on American citizens and groups involved in civil disturbances

By early 1973 - 600 American names and 6,000 foreign names on the watch lists

1973: NSA Director increasingly concerned about Project MINARET

“Army surveillance of civilians … in the 1960’s was both massive and unrestrained … over 1,500 plainclothes agents.”

“… not so much a conscious effort to subvert the freedoms … a classic example of a burgeoning bureaucracy going out of control …”

Shared Responsibility

Intelligence Oversight

Instructor Notes:

The implementation of intelligence oversight is a shared responsibility.

  • First Animation: The commander has ultimate responsibility for the program. He/she sets the moral tone for the command environment. Top command awareness and involvement is essential.
  • Second Animation: The command IG must be involved; IG must be aware of the IO program requirements and be sure there is a mechanism for program review.
  • Third Animation: The Command legal counsel (also known as the Judge Advocate General or Staff Judge Advocate or General Counsel) must be attuned to the IO program requirements and must be available for program guidance.
  • Fourth Animation: Intelligence personnel are the first line of defense.

Roles and Responsibilities

Commanders or Directors:

  • Support an active program
  • Designate appropriate oversight officials

  • Provide for appropriate training
  • Provide reprisal protection for persons reporting questionable activities

  • Implement correct action to address substantiated allegations

Intelligence Oversight

Instructor Notes:

  • Commanders and Directors are responsible for everything their organizations do or fail to do. They are responsible for:
  • Ensuring there is an active program
  • Designating appropriate officials to carry out IO activities
  • Ensuring the appropriate training is being conducted
  • Providing protection from reprisal or adverse action against those reporting questionable intelligence activities
  • Investigating and correcting any substantiated allegations

Continued monitoring of intelligence activities’ legality

Cross talk with IGs as appropriate

Intelligence Oversight

Instructor Notes:

IO officers are generally not qualified or empowered to render legal opinions. The command’s legal advisor (whether Judge Advocate General or Staff Judge Advocate or General Counsel) should review the plans AND the continuing conduct of command intelligence activities for legality.

Willingly and actively serve as IOO’s and participants in day-to-day control and execution of intelligence activities

Report any:

Questionable Intelligence Activities

Significant or Highly Sensitive Matters

Intelligence Oversight

Instructor Notes:

  • Military intelligence professionals (employees) are the first line of defense.
  • They must know the standards and how to comply with them.
  • They should be first person to raise awareness of any inappropriate practices or suggestions.
  • They are the basis of the reporting chain. Whether that reporting chain runs through command channels, through an independent IG’s office or a Judge Advocate General, or straight and directly to OSD, it doesn’t matter as long as it is reported.
  • The issue is policing the intelligence community, getting issues on the table for resolution so that when questions are asked, we do not put at risk the very precious assets that we have been given to prosecute the nation’s business because of misconduct.

Intelligence Oversight

Instructor Notes:

  • At the OSD level, the ATSD(IO) conducts IO inspections at select locations and is responsible for:
  • Monitoring inquiries into questionable intelligence activities
  • Reviewing inquiry findings for completion to ensure that all the appropriate questions have been asked and answered
  • Informing and advising the appropriate OSD officials
  • Reporting to the Executive Branch (President’s Intelligence Oversight Board) and Congress
  • Reporting timeline depends on the severity of the offense. Serious offenses are reported immediately. Generally, however, reports are provided to the President’s Intelligence Oversight Board quarterly and to Congress annually.
  • IO policies and regulations were briefly mentioned in the history and background presented earlier. Now, we will take a closer look at these documents.
