related to national security and provides
appropriate dissemination of such
intelligence;
provides overall direction for and
coordination of the collection of national
intelligence outside the United States
through human sources by elements of

the Intelligence Community authorized


to undertake such collection. In
coordination with other departments,
agencies, or elements of the United
States Government authorized to
undertake such human source collection,
ensures that the most effective use is
made of resources and that appropriate
account is taken of the risks to the
United States and those involved in such
collection;
performs such other functions and
duties related to intelligence affecting
national security as the President or the
Director of National Intelligence may
direct; and
