Sec. 5.72  Executive privilege exemption.

    Where application of the executive privilege exemption is desired, 
the matter shall be forwarded to the Director for consideration. If the 
request for information is Congressional, only the President may invoke 
the exemption. Presidential approval is not necessarily required if the 
request for information is in connection with judicial or adjudicatory 
proceedings or otherwise. In connection with judicial proceedings, the 
response shall be coordinated with the Department of Justice.
