LC Report on Laws Regulating Access to Sensitive Government Information

Report Prepared by the Federal Research Division, Library of Congress under an Interagency Agreement with the NASA Office of Inspector General, September 2004: “Laws and Regulations Governing the Protection of Sensitive But Unclassified Information.” (32 pages, PDF, via Secrecy News)

  • “This report sets forth the statutes, regulations, and Executive Branch directives that define and govern access to Sensitive But Unclassified (SBU) information. Although there is growing concern in the post 9/11 world that guidelines for the protection of SBU (often referred to as Sensitive Homeland Security Information) are needed, a uniform legal definition or set of
    procedures applicable to all Federal government agencies does not now exist. Regulations are reported to be under development in the Office of Management and Budget and the Department of Homeland Security.”
