Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Administrator or Under Secretary for Science and Technology shall convene a working group of screening technology users from the private sector for the purpose of fostering public-private partnerships. The working group shall include representatives of private sector entities, such as major sports leagues and operators of large scale resort parks, which have implemented or are investing in the development of screening security solutions intended to expeditiously screen high volumes of individuals and personal belongings.
The focus of the working group shall be to provide recommendations to the Administrator— to ensure better coordination between the TSA and such private sector entities; to enable the TSA to take advantage of new screening technologies developed for the private sector; to foster public-private partnership principles; and to leverage and maximize the use of private sector capital, whenever appropriate.
