Homeland Security Today: ODNI has published its annual security clearance determinations report that shows that eligibility fell by 4% in 2016.
The annual report is submitted to Congress as a requirement of the Intelligence Authorization Act. The report includes the number of Government employees who held security clearance at each level as of October 1 in the preceding FY and the number who were approved the previous year. It also contains the same data about Government contractors.
The 4% decrease applies to security clearances that are both ‘in access’ and ‘not in access’. It seems to reflect continued efforts to review and validate whether employees and contractors still requires access to classified information.
