Primary Intelligence Group

The Primary Intelligence Group (PIG) is an agency of the Ministry of Defence established by statutory law 29RZ8 in November 2001.

The group is chartered "to collect, analyze and disseminate vital information to the Seneschal and others as directed" and provide briefings to the Ziu when directed to do so by the Seneschal. The PIG operates separately from, but in concert with all other domestic and allied information collection agencies, military organizations, law enforcement agencies and other groups as directed.

The PIG is divided into three branches, which, respectively, may be headed by a Deputy Director:

• General Operations Directorate (GOD), which conducts clandestine operations, information collection and other duties as directed.
• Analysis Sub-Section (ASS), which conducts information analysis and other duties as directed.
• Internal Information Security Sub-Section (2I3S), which conducts intra-agency security operations and other duties as directed.
