On the recordMarch 24, 1998
the report of the National Defense Panel (NDP) has been tremendously useful to the Congress as we consider the national security requirements for our military today, and into the 21st century. The termination of the National Defense Panel (NDP) is extended through fiscal year 1998 to provide additional details on their deliberations. The members of the National Defense Panel have provided insightful testimony on their assessment of the scope scale, and pace of military transformation needed to address the operational challenges of the 21st century. They are also providing insights on transforming the defense industrial base and infrastructure. The NDP will retain status, staff, and facilities as directed in section 924 of the National Defense Authorization Act for 1997.
