CBP Launches FOIA Electronic Reading Room

Share this:

A newly upgraded web-based reading room has just been launched by U.S.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The CBP Freedom of Information Act
Electronic Reading Room will feature a range of documents and records
that, prior to the launch of this upgraded service, were only available
via an FOIA request. Documents included in the FOIA Electronic Reading
Room include final opinions and orders related to the adjudication of
administrative cases, certain agency policy statements, specific
administrative staff manuals and other records that have been disclosed
in response to an FOIA request.

“CBP is striving to boost agency transparency and accountability, while
promoting efficiency and effectiveness through the use of technology,”
said Jayson P. Ahern, Acting Commissioner of CBP. “We hope the public
will visit the Freedom of Information Act Electronic Reading Room for
the most direct access to information and to avoid the need to go
through the FOIA request process.”
