Washington, D.C. 20530 Dear Mr. Attorney General: In March 2001, you asked me to lead a Commission to study security programs within the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Your request came at the urging of FBI Director Louis Freeh, who had concluded that an outside review was critical in light of the then recently discovered espionage by a senior Bureau official. In discharging my duties, I turned to six distinguished citizens as fellow Commissioners and to a staff of highly qualified professionals. I want to acknowledge the diligence with which my colleagues pursued the complex matters within our mandate. The Commission took its responsibilities seriously. It was meticulous in its investigation, vigorous in its discussions, candid in sharing views, and unanimous in its recommendations. When I agreed to chair the Commission, you promised the full cooperation and support of the Department of Justice and the FBI. That promise has been fulfilled. I would like to thank the Department’s Security and Emergency Planning Staff for the expert help they gave us, and I especially commend the cooperation of Director Mueller and FBI personnel at every level, who have all been chastened by treachery from within.

I appreciate the opportunity to appear before the Subcommittee to discuss the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI’s) reorganization. I am speaking today as Chair of the National Academy of Public Administration’s Panel on the FBI Reorganization. The Academy is an independent non- profit organization chartered by Congress to assist public institutions in improving their performance. Other members of the Academy’s Panel include Robert Alloway, Frank Chellino, Martin Faga, Kristine Marcy, Robert O’Neill, and Harold Saunders. (See Attachment A) In June 2002, on behalf of the Academy’s Panel, I testified before this Subcommittee on the FBI’s proposed reorganization plan. Specifically, we: · endorsed the creation of the five new divisions Director Mueller recommended · suggested additional steps to help implement the reorganization successfully · expressed concerns about information technology and information sharing, that were critical to combating terrorism and improving the FBI’s overall performance This Subcommittee subsequently approved that plan. The urgency of Congressional action last year required the Panel to expedite its review. However, at the Subcommittee’s request, we have continued to monitor and assess the FBI’s reorganization progress this year in seven key areas.
