From the supplier: Several initiatives have been made to address concerns regarding the government's secrecy policy. Pres Bill Clinton himself has issued executive orders to declassify and release classified documents in 1994 and 1995. As an outcome of a two-year examination of secrecy policies, the Commission on Protecting and Reducing Government Secrecy has proposed the Government Secrecy Act of 1997 that will set necessary changes in policy. In addition to these initiatives, advances in information technology are expected to promote access to government secrets and classified information.
