Record of Proceedings on H. R. 3829, the Intelligence Community Whistleblower Protection Act of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence

Consists of two Full Committee Hearings. The first hearing focuses on the legal, practical & security issues concerning any arrangement for handling whistleblowers from the intelligence community. The second hearing focuses on the proposed role of the Inspectors General in such an arrangement. The hearings discuss how best to handle whistleblowers from within the intelligence community to balance two competing sets of interests: the need to protect & encourage the whistleblowers contribution to congressional oversight on the one hand, versus the need to protect vital law enforcement, foreign affairs & national security interests & initiatives of the President on the other.Goss, Porter J. is the author of 'Record of Proceedings on H.
