Each year, DHS's intelligence chief must report to Congress on the department's intelligence work. The report lists funding, staff numbers, and whether each activity mainly supports national or department needs. DHS also had to study folding department-focused intelligence spending into one program.

(a) In general. Every year, along with DHS's budget materials, the Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis must send the congressional intelligence committees a report on each intelligence activity of each DHS intelligence unit the Under Secretary names. For each activity, the report must include: (1) how much funding is requested; (2) how many full-time employees are funded to do it; (3) how many full-time-equivalent contractor employees are funded to do or support it; (4) whether the activity mainly supports national intelligence or DHS's own department missions; and (5) the total number of DHS Intelligence Enterprise analysts doing (A) strategic analysis or (B) operational analysis. (b) Feasibility and advisability report. Within 120 days of December 19, 2014, DHS's Secretary, acting through the Under Secretary, had to send the intelligence committees a report that (1) studies whether it makes sense to fold the budgets of DHS intelligence activities that mainly support department (not national) missions into the Homeland Security Intelligence Program, and (2) includes a plan to better coordinate department-wide intelligence work and make it more efficient. (c) Intelligence component of the Department. In this section, "intelligence component of the Department" means what it means in section 101 of this title.
