Abstract
The Department of the Navy is revising the exemption rule for N05520-5, entitled "Personnel Security Program Management Records System". The revision includes deleting the (k)(1) exemption because it is redundant to 32 CFR 701.117; and claiming subsections (c)(3) and (e)(1) under the (k)(5) exemption. The principal purpose of the (k)(5) exemption is to protect the identity of a confidential source. The expansion is considered supportive, and in furtherance, of the overall purpose of the exemption.
