THE ADVISORY BOARD FOR DEFENCE INFORMATION

Secretary General: Heli Santala

The Advisory Board for Defence Information is a permanent parliamentary committee that administratively operates in the Research Unit of the Administration Policy Department, Ministry of Defence. The Government appoints the advisory board for the electoral term of Parliament.

The work of the MTS is based on a 1975 Decree (1073/75). It is the mission of the MTS to plan defence information when times are normal and to do it for exceptional conditions as well. It also follows the development of the opinions of the Finns on issues closely related to national defence.

The MTS has its own Secretariat and close connections with corresponding organisations in the other Nordic countries.
