结论	Questions about the NSC's roles and authority must be answered Is there a legislative or constitutional basis for the NSC? Does the NSC have the backing of the country's chief executive? The composition and accountability format of the NSC must be examined Is there a balance between civilian and noncivilian members of the NSC? Is the NSC appropriately sized, with virtually all NSC members having national security responsibilities? Is there meaningful accountability for the NSC? The sufficiency of resources for the NSC must be assessed Do the NSC and its secretariat have appropriate levels of personnel and funding? Does the NSC have access to a broad range of expertise?
摘要	The NSC should be established through law. The law schould specify the composition, authorities, sources of funding, and other modalities of the NSC are. Because of the importance of the NSC and the issues it handles, both the president and the prime minister should be statutory members of the NSC, with the former serving as its chair. The NSC should include a balance of civilian and noncivilian members, although it should be slightly tipped in favor of civilians. Core members of the NSC should include the ministers for defense, foreign affairs, justice, etc. Military and intelligence chiefs could also serve as advisers. Officials who do not have duties directly related to national security should be invited to attend only when necessary. The national security adviser should be appointed only on parliamentary approval. The NSC should present periodic reports on its activities to parliament. The NSC should consult parliament on major issues, such as domestic deployment of the armed forces. The NSC should include representatives from other political parties. The NSC and its secretariat should have funding streams ensured by legislation and have a formal process for recruiting staff members. The NSC and its secretariat should work with other institutions to share the resources and burdens; draw on expertise across other national agencies or across different levels of government; and draw on outside expertise, such as academia and the private sector.
