IC programs are funded under two programs: (1) the National Intelligence Program (NIP), which covers the programs, projects, and activities of the IC oriented towards the strategic requirements of policymakers, and (2) the Military Intelligence Program (MIP), which funds defense intelligence activities intended to support tactical military operations and priorities. The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence (USD(I)) manage the NIP and MIP, respectively, under different authorities. The NIP and MIP National Intelligence Program (NIP) The origins of the intelligence budget, separate and distinct from the defense budget, date back to reforms initiated in the 1970s to improve oversight and accountability of the IC. At that time, the National Foreign Intelligence Program (NFIP) was managed by the Director of Central Intelligence (DCI), in consultation with the Secretary of Defense, and overseen by the National Security Council (NSC). The term NIP was created by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act (IRTPA) of 2004 (P.L. 108-458 § 1074). The IRTPA deleted Foreign from NFIP and created the position of DNI. The DNI was given greater budgetary authority over the NIP than the DCI had in conjunction with the NFIP. Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) 104 provides overall policy to include a description of the DNI's roles and responsibilities as program executive of the NIP. Military Intelligence Program (MIP) Military-specific tactical and/or operational intelligence activities were not included in the NFIP. They were referred to as Tactical Intelligence and Related Activities (TIARA) and were managed separately by the Secretary of Defense. TIARA referred to the intelligence activities of a single service that were considered organic (meaning to belong to) military units. In 1994, a new category was created called the Joint Military Intelligence Program (JMIP) for defense-wide intelligence programs. A DOD memorandum signed by the Secretary of Defense in 2005 merged TIARA and JMIP to create the MIP. DOD Directive 5205.12, signed in November 2008, established policies and assigned responsibilities, to include the USD(I)'s role as program executive of the MIP, acting on behalf of the Secretary of Defense. The IC has established organizing principles it calls Rules of the Road to loosely explain the programs' different but related structures. A program is primarily NIP if it funds an activity that supports more than one department or agency (such as satellite imagery), or provides a service of common concern for the IC (such as secure communications). The NIP funds the CIA and the strategic-level intelligence activities associated with the National Security Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency and National Geospatial- Intelligence Agency. A program is primarily MIP if it funds an activity that addresses a unique DOD requirement. Additionally, MIP funds may be used to sustain, enhance, or increase capacity/capability of NIP systems. The DNI and USD(I) work together in a number of ways to facilitate the seamless integration of NIP and MIP intelligence efforts. Mutually beneficial programs may receive both NIP and MIP resources. NIP and MIP Spending At the present time only the NIP topline figure must be publicly disclosed based on a directive in statute. The DNI is not required to disclose any other information concerning the NIP budget, whether the information concerns particular intelligence agencies or particular intelligence programs. The Secretary of Defense also discloses annual MIP appropriations figures back to 2007. For Fiscal Year (FY) 2017, the aggregate appropriated for the NIP and MIP totaled $73B (NIP $54.6B, MIP $18.4B). For FY2018, the aggregate amount appropriated for the NIP and MIP totaled $81.5B (NIP $59.4B, MIP $22.1B). For FY2019, the aggregate amount requested for the NIP and MIP totals $81.1 (NIP $59.9B, MIP $21.2B). Two Budget Processes: IPPBE PPBE The IC's Intelligence Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Evaluation (IPPBE) process allocates funding and personnel resources supporting IC-wide capabilities through the development and execution of the NIP and its associated budget. The NIP addresses priorities described in national security-related documents such as the National Intelligence Strategy. The IPPBE process applies to all 17 components of the IC. Program managers control NIP resources aligned with requirements for IC capabilities such as cryptology, reconnaissance, and signals collection- capabilities that may span several IC components. The DOD's Planning, Programming, Budgeting and Execution (PPBE) process provides the funding the service components and DOD intelligence agencies (DIA, NSA, NRO, and NGA) require to organize, train and equip military forces for combat, and to cover all necessary https://crsreports.congress go
