Commission urges tighter CIA controls and oversight reforms
The Rockefeller Commission proposes new executive and congressional machinery to curb CIA abuses, a 10 year director term, partial budget disclosure, restricted domestic mail openings, and heightened internal resistance to improper directives. It suggests expanding the Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board into a full oversight body with a named chairman and staff and urges a Joint Committee on Intelligence to oversee sensitive activities. It also calls for a law tying CIA activity to foreign intelligence and limits on domestic data gathering with narrow exceptions.
