A national roadmap:Police List Info-sharing Suggestions
Oct. 27, 2003, Federal Computer Week, FCW.com, BY Dibya Sarkar, Philadelphia.
"Pointing to inadequacies in the intelligence process that, in part, failed to prevent the 2001 terrorist attacks, law enforcement officials recently unveiled a national roadmap to help state, tribal and local agencies get a lot better at sharing information. At its annual conference here last week, the International Association of Chiefs of Police presented its National Criminal Intelligence Sharing Plan, which outlines 28 recommendations. It's a way to jumpstart agencies that may lack the knowledge in developing such systems."
