decisões de 20.5M para classificar originais

Havia 20.5 milhão decisões para classificar o ano passado segredos do governo, e um relatório ao presidente encontrou shortcomings sérios no processo.
O escritório mais de 1 dito do Oversight da segurança da informação em 10 originais que reviu faltou uma base para a classificação, “chamando na pergunta o propriety” das decisões para colocá-las fora dos limites à divulgação pública.
“A taxa de erro elevada,” o ISOO disse em sua revisão anual, pode somente ser dirigido por um esforço multifaceted e por um oversight contínuo.
The report comes as the office of Vice President Dick Cheney is refusing to cooperate with the office of the National Archives. The report noted that Cheney’s office “did not report data to ISOO this year.”
Executive branch agencies give the ISOO data on how much material they classify and declassify. Cheney’s office provided the information in 2001 and 2002, then stopped.
“The reviews of actual decision making are striking, given the vice president’s refusal to report” to the ISOO, said Meredith Fuchs, general counsel at the National Security Archive, a private group advocating public disclosure of government secrets.
The White House says it’s clear that the president’s executive order on the matter never intended for the vice president’s office to be treated as an agency.
The ISOO said the Pentagon reported a 35 percent decline in its activity to classify documents, and that the amount of classification government-wide declined for the second straight year.
However, the amount of derivative classification activity rose by more than 6 million actions.
Derivative classification is the act of incorporating in a new form information that has already been classified.
