Senate panel urges CIA to heed new law abroad
Washington AP The Senate Foreign Relations Committee urged the Central Intelligence Agency to promptly comply with a new law restricting covert operations abroad amid an inquiry into domestic spying. Sen Sparkman said the panel may delay a broader probe into CIA activities at home, and called for a review of CIA programs to ensure justification and reporting to relevant committees. The measure signed by the President cuts funding for overseas CIA work except essential intelligence gathering with national security importance and requires reports to Congress. The committee expects a full report and termination of any banned activities.
