Is it sufficient? Is it all that needs to be done? I'm not sure. We'll have to see what the results of those steps are. We tried lo provide recommendations to ensure that these very impertant but sensitive tools are used in full accord with national security letter authorities, with A.G. guidelines and intemal control policies. They hadn't been in the past. We'll have to see if they are now. COBLE: Ms. Caproni? CAPRONI: I think we're going to have to work to get the trust of this committee back. And we know that that's what we have to do, and we're going to do it. . - COBLE: Let me ask you this, Ms. Caproni: Can the FBI implement the attorney general's directions within the four months when the A.G. has requested Mr. Fine to report on your progress? CAPRONI. I hope so. There's some that are going to require some, sort of, interagency work. But, certainly, we will -- if not, al] of them will be filly implemented in four months since we will have made substantial progress. COBLE: And you may have address this earlier, Ms. Caproni, but let me put it to you in case you did not: Does the FBI have any discrepancy or challenge with the report that Mr. Fine has issued? CAPRONE: No. We aceept the report. To the extent we had factual quarrels, we worked those out and either we persuaded them or they persuaded us. COBLE: What do you think -- you may not be able to respond to this -- what do you think, Ms. Caproni, are the greatest obstacles that your office faces in implementing the A.G.'s directions? CAPRONI: I think that any obstacles there are, the director is going to make sure are removed. ] think it’s time, it's energy and effort, and we're going to do it. COBLE: I thank you both for betng here.
