Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter said the Bush administration and Congress may be close to an agreement on submitting a National Security Agency surveillance program to judicial review.

Specter, a Pennsylvania Republican who has been critical of the warrantless eavesdropping program instituted after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, said White House officials have indicated they may be willing to accept oversight from a special court set up to handle intelligence wiretaps.
``There is an inclination to have it submitted to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court,'' Specter said on the ``Fox News Sunday'' program, ``and that would be a big step forward for protection of constitutional rights and civil liberties.''

``The administration has long said that while we don't believe additional legal authority is necessary that we are willing to listen to the ideas of members of Congress on possible legislation,'' White House spokesman Ken Lisaius said today. ``Discussions are ongoing and we will continue to work with Chairman Specter as well as the intelligence committee.''
