This law lets the Secretary of Defense pick someone from the Office of the Secretary of Defense to be Principal Advisor on Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction. That person coordinates the Department's work against these weapons. They must already be a Senate-confirmed appointee in their current position.

This section lets the Secretary of Defense designate a "Principal Advisor on Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction." The Secretary picks this person from among the staff already working in the Office of the Secretary of Defense. This Principal Advisor's job is to coordinate the Department of Defense's activities that relate to countering weapons of mass destruction. The person chosen for this role must already hold a position that required Senate confirmation — meaning they were appointed to their existing job "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate."
