NOTICE TO THE COURT
Secretary Califano will not assert the executive privilege.
Counsel for Secretary Califano requests that this Court rule on
the pending motions on the basis of the briefs and proposed
orders already filed by balancing the government's need for
nondisclosure of governmental advisory and deliberative communi-
cations with the litigants need to know, after this Court has
viewed the documents in camera. Carl Zelss Stiftung v. E. B.
Carl Zeiss, 40 F.R.D. 318 (D.D.C. 1966) aff'd per curiam, 384
F.2d 1979 (D.C.Cir. 1966) cert, denied, 398 U.8. 952. Defendant
Califano again points out that Item Number 6, the Draft "Final
Report" was never adopted by the Department and therefore does
not reflect the Secretary's policy or position on the subject
matter or conclusion contained in the document.
Respectfully submitted,
