2. Establish a National Law Enforcement/Public Safety Wireless Network for use by federal, state, and local governments. The Government Information Technology Services Working Group should issue a memorandum by July 1994 directing the Federal Law Enforcement Wireless Users Group to coordinate establishment of an intergovernmental wireless network. The users group should work with the Office of Management and Budget, the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, the Communications Interoperability Working Group, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and state and local entities to: ---further define costs and benefits, and develop budget strategies; and ---develop an implementation plan for the National Law Enforcement/Public Safety Network to cover the next 10 years. Responsibilities must be clearly defined, since the issue of which agency or activity funds and controls the network will be a point of contention. Establishment and use of the network must be handled at the highest level to avoid turf conflicts and to focus on goals, roles, methods, and relationships.
