The three federal departments with the largest budgets for homeland security are DHS, DOD, and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Chapter 5 examined planning and resource allocation in DOD. This chapter looks at the arrangements in DHS and HHS. The next two sections take up each of those departments in turn. The chapter ends with a brief concluding section.
