GATA Renews Requests to Treasury, Fed for Gold Data
Responding to President Obama’s instruction to government agencies of January 21 this year, seeking greater openness in government, GATA today reformulated and resubmitted to the U.S. Treasury Department and Federal Reserve Board our requests of last year seeking access to records of swaps involving the U.S. gold reserve. You may recall that the Treasury entirely rejected GATA’s request last year while the Fed withheld most documents of any substance, contending, in part, that disclosure would harm certain proprietary interests, among others.
