in effect, the Court may review and assess compliance with
such procedures and shall have access to the assessments and
reviews required by subsections (k)(1), (k)(2), and (k)(3)
with respect to compliance with such procedures. In
conducting a review under this paragraph, the Court may, to
the extent necessary, require the Government to provide
additional information regarding the acquisition, retention,
or dissemination of information concerning United States

subsection (a). The Court may fashion remedies it determines
necessary to enforce compliance.
