"Congress learns of SAPs only through briefings given to senior members of Congress on a "need to know" basis, such as the chairmen and ranking minority members of committees with budget authority over the SAP. The depth and level of detail of the briefings are unknown. Do lawmakers get details about delays, cost overruns, and operational effectiveness of various SAPs, or just assurances that things are going well? Do they learn enough to make rational decisions about whether to continue funding the programs? Since the informed members of Congress cannot consult independent experts about any technical aspects of SAPs they may know, they must rely on the honesty and good will of those who brief them. Critics such as Tim Weiner, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter for the Philadelphia Inquirer, have charged that SAPs are frequently used not to protect national security but instead to hide program failures, mismanagement, waste, overly cozy relationships between defense contracts and the military brass, and even outright fraud. Such problems occur throughout government programs that are not classified and subject to public review and investigation; one can only wonder at what happens inside programs of which any meaningful public oversight is impossible."
