Officially part of the Ministry of Defence, TC2 is directly responsible to the Communist Party of Vietnam and the President. ["Ordinance on Intelligence Services, 14 December 1996"] TC2's powers were officially established by law by in the 1990s, but existed "de facto" for some time before that — it is believed, for example, to have been active during the Vietnamese occupation of Cambodia. Despite its naming as a military intelligence body, its work covers a broad range of interests — by law, it is permitted to "be active in the fields of politics, defence, security, foreign relations, economics, science and technology, industry and the environment, society and culture". ["Decree 96/CP on Defence Intelligence, 11 September 1997"] . It is responsible for both internal and external intelligence.

TC2 has been accused by some groups of human rights abuses and political interference. [" [http://www.queme.net/eng/e-news_detail.php?numb=143 Que Me, 29 July 2004] "] .
