SUBJECT: Meeting with House Select Committee Staffers
1. Saturday afternoon I spent about two hours with Emily Sheketoff
and Edward Roeder, staff members of the House Select Committee. I briefed
them generally on what the Office did. I mentioned each of the regulatory
procedures which require components of the Agency to get legal approval.
I spent some time on the opinion writing of the Office in the finance field.
I also explained our role in proprietaries, both in formation and liquidation.
t;a know "yr 'w'hat o utho'.."ity y -'dgos could do this : I indicated no judges had.
.;
ever questioned this and I stated I assumed they balanced the extremely
peripheral rights, if there were any, of a private citizen and the responsi-
bilities placed on the Agency to perform its functions as being paramount
to those possible peripheral rights. Roeder was never satisfied on this
point.
