Joint Doctrine Publication (JDP) 2-00, Intelligence, Counter-Intelligence and Security Support to Joint Operations (Fourth Edition), reinforces the enduring cross-governmental nature of intelligence and the need to instil a spirit of collaboration, including with partners and allies, in an interdepartmental and inter-agency context.

To support this approach, commanders at all levels require accurate and timely intelligence and understanding to inform their decision-making. They must also know and understand their own role and that of their staff in developing and delivering it.
