Interim Analysis of Iraqi Security Force Information Provided by the Department of Defense Report, "Measuring Stability and Security in Iraq"

Abstract

Section 9010 of the Defense Appropriations Act of 2007, Public Law 109-289, requires the Secretary of Defense to submit a quarterly report to the Congress that presents a comprehensive set of performance indicators and measures of progress toward military and political stability in Iraq. One indicator being reported is information on the number of Iraqi Security Forces (ISF) authorized (required), assigned (on-the-payroll), and trained. The Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction (SIGIR) reviewed available information to assess the reliability and usefulness of the number of forces authorized, assigned, and trained, as reflected in the March 2008 Department of Defense (DoD) Section 9010 report, "Measuring Stability and Security in Iraq," and the methodology for gathering the information, including the extent to which DoD reviews and/or validates this information.
