CTP Freedom of Information Act
Background
The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requires federal agencies to disclose records requested in writing by any person. However, federal agencies may withhold information pursuant to nine exemptions and three exclusions which are contained in the statute. Each federal agency is responsible for meeting its FOIA responsibilities for its own records.
The Center for Tobacco Products (CTP) Electronic Reading Room displays frequently requested CTP records. Some records may be redacted to remove non-public information (see 21 C.F.R. 20). If the information you seek is not available from any of the below sources, please visit the CTP home page and for other FDA documents, please visit the FDA Freedom of Information (FOI) page.
