Not started

Printed page 163 5. Department of Homeland Security

“Both public and legislative affairs staff in the components should report directly to their respective headquarters equivalent. This would help to avoid a failure by the department to speak with one voice.”

What has happened

    Nothing found. No DHS directive making component public affairs and legislative affairs staff report directly to their headquarters equivalents was announced or published. Component public affairs and legislative affairs offices continue to appear as component functions.
