1260.60—What are agency responsibilities with regard to mandatory review requests for White House originated information?

When an agency receives a mandatory review request from NARA for consultation on declassification of White House originated material, whether it is an initial request or an appeal, the agency must:

(a) Advise the Archivist whether the information should be declassified in whole or in part or should remain classified;

(b) Provide NARA a brief statement providing the authority for the continued classification of any information not declassified; and

(c) Return all reproductions referred for consultation, including a complete copy of each document that should be declassified only in part, uniformly and conspicuously marked to leave no doubt about the status of the information and the authority for its continued classification or its declassification.
