White House Office of Administration Not Subject to FOIA, Says White House

Posted by timothy on Tuesday March 17, 2015 @02:50AM from the well-they-certainly-are-transparent dept.

An anonymous reader writes with this story at USA Today: The White House is removing a federal regulation that subjects its Office of Administration to the Freedom of Information Act, making official a policy under Presidents Bush and Obama to reject requests for records to that office. The White House said the cleanup of FOIA regulations is consistent with court rulings that hold that the office is not subject to the transparency law.
