Consistent with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), as amended by the Openness Promotes Effectiveness in our National Government Act of 2007 and Executive Order 13392, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has undertaken and completed a review of its public FOIA regulations that govern certain aspects of its processing of FOIA requests. As a result of this review, the CIA proposes to revise its FOIA regulations to more clearly reflect the current CIA organizational structure, record system configuration, and FOIA policies and practices to eliminate ambiguous, redundant, and obsolete regulatory provisions. As required by the FOIA, the CIA is providing an opportunity for interested persons to submit comments on these proposed regulations.

Comments are due on or before May 19, 2008.
