Response to the Bellows Report
When the FBI
received a draft copy of the Bellows report, a detailed
review of its many recommendations was conducted, with the
participation of working groups formed by the Attorney General.
From this process,
the FBI identified specific areas in the counterintelligence
program for improvement, and, with the concurrence of the
former and current Attorneys General, have implemented those
improvements.
The FBI welcomed
these constructive recommendations and actively pursued
corrective action to improve and enhance its counterintelligence
program. These actions, along with initiatives associated
with Counterintelligence in the 21st Century, or CI-21,
have had the combined effect of strengthening the FBI's
ability to protect national security.
