GAO provided information on its National Security Analysis issue area plan for fiscal years 1997-1999.

GAO plans to assess the: (1) extent to which the Department of Defense's (DOD) initiatives for implementing the national military strategy result in the efficient and effective allocation of resources; (2) efficiency and effectiveness of DOD's existing and planned force structure; (3) extent to which planned defense budgets accurately reflect the projected costs of DOD programs; and (4) extent to which the intelligence community is adequately addressing the changed threat and new requirements.
