the integrity of the committee. reckless disclosures complicate a trial and cast a cloud over the committee's current and future investigations. i believe that both the executive branch and congress have an obligation to help the other achieve their constitutional responsibilities rather than manufacturing unnecessary conflict. for the benefit of our witnesses, let me note that the department has now asserted executive privilege -- has not asserted executive privilege to withhold documents to date. it has produced or made available for review more than 1300 pages, some public and some not. the department and the committee have agreed on search terms for electronic searches, responsive e-mails which are now being conducted for 19 officials approved by committee staff. last week the committee conducted a six-hour interview of the special agent in be charge of atf's phoenix office, and we have scheduled an interview of his supervisor, the atf deputy assistant director. these actions demonstrate good faith. at the same time, the department has expressed serious and legitimate concerns about the scope of the documents encompassed by chairman issa's subpoena, including records that ide

president reagan explained in 1986, the policy of the executive branch throughout our nation's history has generally been to decline to provide committees of congress with access to or copies of open law enforcement files except in extraordinary circumstances. the policy is designed to fulfill the department's obligations to preserve the independence, integrity and effectiveness of law enforcement investigations in the criminal justice process generally, and i want to say, this policy is completely nonpartisan. it has been relied on by administrations of both parties for decades. so in response to your subpoena, this department has been striving to reconcile the two principles by accommodating the committee's oversight interests while protecting our confidentiality interests. striking this balance can take time and effort. it is not the case that the department is refusing to comply with the department's subpoena. in fact, we are working diligently to satisfy the committee's core oversight interests without compromising the important purposes underlying the department's policy that i have described. the starting point for our approach is an agreeme

the executive branch. i note it's inconvenient to have congress set fees but that's the job of congress. not the job of an unelected bureaucrat. when i chaired the house small business committee, i continued the tradition of preventing the s.b.a. from unilaterally being able to set fees to another level they sought. i don't see why we have to do this with the p.t.o. now, in the present bill, section 11 actually lowers fees for small business people. and it has a good patent fee structure. however, section 10 would allow the p.t.o. director to proceed with administrator process to eviscerate that section and impose his own fees. to compound the problem, the patent office has been saying for years that if they had the authority to raise fees, they would. in 2002 the p.t.o.'s strategic plan said they need to have a fee-based upon -- fee based upon a progressive system aimed at limiting applications. at 2010 the paper on patent reform, they said the same thing. the patent office's idea of cutting back on the backlog is to raise fees. that doesn't make sense. but let's eliminate that authority from the patent office, let's leave that authority with the united states congress. i re
