National Intelligence Director James Clapper signed a charter April 5 to formally establish a new council to help intelligence agencies implement transparency strategies.

The Intelligence Transparency Council was formed out of a working group that comprises senior intelligence officials who have worked to create the Principles of Intelligence Transparency for the community, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence said April 5.

According to the ITC charter, the council aims to ensure that the public has access to information about the IC’s mission, authorities and oversight framework.

Council members will also provide advice to Clapper and other top IC officials on how to coordinate and sustain programs aimed at increasing transparency in intelligence activities as well as update a transparency implementation plan on an annual basis.
