Description

“It is my judgment that it is in the public interest to grant you a limited waiver with respect to certain of your activities as Secretary of Labor”

TLS as president, two pages, 7 x 10.5, White House letterhead, April 5, 1985. Letter to Secretary of Labor William E. Brock. In part: “Review of your financial circumstances preparatory to your confirmation as the Secretary of the Department of Labor revealed the existence of two qualified blind trusts…as well as a number of preexisting trusts established for your benefit and that of your wife and dependent children…I have been advised that you have…undertaken to have all of the preexisting trusts treated as qualified blind trusts to ensure that the assets acquired in any of the trusts in the future will not present you with potential conflict of interest problems as you carry out your duties and responsibilities as the Secretary of Labor…I have determined that a present individual diversified holding about which you have knowledge…in any preexisting trust portfolio…is not so substantial a financial interest so as to affect the integrity of the services expected of you as the Secretary of Labor. This general waiver is granted as to those financial interests…As to those financial interests which fall outside the parameters of the general waiver…it is my judgment that it is in the public interest to grant you a limited waiver with respect to certain of your activities as Secretary of Labor.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
