SUMMARY: The Commission on the Intelligence Capabilities of the United States Regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction (“Commission”) will meet in closed session on Wednesday, July 14, 2004, and Thursday, July 15, 2004, in its offices in Arlington, Virginia.
Executive Order 13328 established the Commission for the purpose of assessing whether the Intelligence Community is sufficiently authorized, organized, equipped, trained, and resourced to identify and warn in a timely manner of, and to support the United States Government's efforts to respond to, the development of Weapons of Mass Destruction, related means of delivery, and other related threats of the 21st Century. This meeting will consist of briefings and discussions involving classified matters of national security, including classified briefings from representatives of agencies within the Intelligence Community;
Commission discussions based upon the content of classified intelligence documents the Commission has received from agencies within the Intelligence Community; and presentations concerning the United States' intelligence capabilities that are based upon classified information.
