You must comply with these requirements when you request the release or disclosure of official records and information.
The Office of Government Ethics intends these provisions to:
Promote economy and efficiency in its programs and operations;
Minimize the possibility of involving OGE in controversial issues not related to our functions;
Maintain OGE's impartiality among private litigants where OGE is not a named party; and
Protect sensitive, confidential information and the deliberative processes of OGE.
