This report addresses (1) the roles and responsibilities of FSDs and the clarity of their authority relative to that of other airport stakeholders during security incidents, (2) the extent to which FSDs formed and facilitated partnerships with airport stakeholders, and (3) FSDs' views of key changes TSA made to better support or empower the FSD position. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-935/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-935.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-935/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-935.pdf GAO-05-935 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-935 Other Written Product GAO-05-935; Transportation Security Administration: More Clarity on the Authority of Federal Security Directors Is Needed; Agency missions Airport security Aviation security Commercial aviation Transportation security Counterterrorism Federal employees Internal controls Policy evaluation Policies and procedures Stakeholder consultations Volume 104 Page 3066 104 Stat. 3066 Volume 115 Page 597 115 Stat. 597 Volume 118 Page 3638 118 Stat. 3638 Public Law 101-604 Public Law 107-71 Public Law 107-296 Public Law 108-458
