UK Iraq document and its use of open sources

janes.com

It is usual working practice for the intelligence community to use open sources when they are of sufficient quality. In this way it can focus effort on gathering information that is not so readily available, thereby avoiding wasteful duplication of research. The articles by Gause, Boyne and Marishi present an accurate and comprehensive picture of Saddam’s security apparatus, and hence so does the UK dossier.

However, when an agency produces a report for classified consumption it will usually identify the nature of the sources used. The fact that the UK dossier does not identify the source for each bit of evidence in the report could be taken as misleading, or taken to be an effort to disguise the classified material included in the dossier.
