Criticizing former President Clinton's failure to deliver an approximately 200-page final report on efforts to protect government computer systems and critical infrastructure from cyberterrorists, Rep. Billy Tauzin, R-LA, called on a top Clinton administration official to deliver the finished "cybersecurity" report to Congress.
In a letter last week to Richard Clarke, national coordinator for security, infrastructure protection, and counterterrorism, Tauzin requested that Clarke furnish the House Commerce and Energy Committee with the "final, cleared version" of the report.
Tauzin further requested that Clarke "provide the committee with a complete listing of the individuals appointed by President Clinton to the National Infrastructure Assurance Council (NIAC)," along with biographies and resumes of the members."
Tauzin said he was "concerned" that Clinton waited to the last minute to appoint the first group of members to the council. Clarke has until Jan. 31 to meet Tauzin's requests.
