Currently, law enforcement agencies have been conducting multiple emergency simulations that are designed to enhance response time, coordination, and collaboration of agencies that will be responsible for responding to local or national incidents. In addition, law enforcement agencies are requiring personnel to attend training on emergency response procedures and develop multijurisdictional teams that will be prepared to respond to terrorists and national disasters. With all these initiatives and many others, an intelligence-led policing (ILP) model, once it has thoroughly addressed its shortcomings, will prove to be a viable policing model for a post-9/11 world. In order to overcome the shortcomings in effectiveness and cooperation, and to enhance the protection of civil liberties, law enforcement agencies must take advantage of training initiatives and adhere to existing intelligence policies. Since the findings by the 9/11 Commission that numerous intelligence failures led to the terrorist attack, law enforcement agencies have been scrambling to redefine their role both locally and nationally. A summary of policy implications for improving interagency cooperation, efficiency, and protection of civil rights is discussed. References
