The report reviews the outcome of the third of three CSS/GFP seminars. The topic of the seminar was on factors influencing the readiness of policy and operational organizations to address potential threats. The group addressed issues such as the warning-response gap, specific needs for counter-terrorism warning, long-term foresight, and new approaches to warning and communication. The seminar series ended with a roundtable discussion, looking at issues such as the relationship between intelligence and the policy process or key challenges of getting policymakers and operational personnel to act on warning.
