possible, transparency in the operation
of TARP. Increasingly, members of the
Congress, the press, and the public have
expressed frustration with the opaque
nature of TARP operations, and they
have raised questions about (1) the use

(8) Information obtained from the
form that qualifies as confidential
business information will be so treated

manner that would reveal the individual
operations of a TARP recipient.

Requests for additional information or
copies of the questionnaire and
instructions should be directed to Barry
W. Holman, Deputy Inspector General
for Audit, at (202) 622–4633. Comments
