Plan for Counterterror Database Unveiled
Law Enforcement, Airlines Would Use FBI Watch List

The Bush administration, hoping to overcome the government's failures to share sensitive counterterror information, unveiled plans yesterday for a master database of "known and suspected terrorists" that would be used in background checks around the world.

... The new database, which is scheduled to be operational Dec. 1, will include names compiled by the FBI, the CIA, the Homeland Security Department and the State Department. State operates a huge watch list known as TIPOFF that contains the names of 110,000 potential terrorists. Officials said they did not yet know how many names would be included on the new list, or even the number of databases from which the names would be drawn.

Officials said the list will be controlled by the FBI rather than the Homeland Security Department largely because of the bureau's long experience in running a nationwide criminal database used by local police.
