"Ground rules on intelligence-sharing were agreed to in the 1970s, but none were written down, and over time these understandings often gave way in the continuing tussle between the overseers and the overseen. Twenty years later, the system still operates without formal rules of the road.'' Information covered includes How intelligence-sharing with Congress has evolved, What distinguishes Congress as a consumer of intelligence, How intelligence-sharing works at present, the Impact of intelligence-sharing with Congress, Problems and Pitfalls, and Recommendations.
