PREFATORY NOTE
These transcripts have been produced from the original raw
transcripts in the FOMC Secretariat's files. The Secretariat has
lightly edited the originals to facilitate the reader's understanding.
Where one or more words were missed or garbled in the transcription,
the notation "unintelligible" has been inserted. In some instances,
words have been added in brackets to complete a speaker's thought or
to correct an obvious transcription error or misstatement.
Errors undoubtedly remain. The raw transcripts were not
fully edited for accuracy at the time they were produced because they
were intended only
as
an
aid
to the Secretariat in preparing the
records of the Committee's policy actions. The edited transcripts
have not been reviewed by present or past members of the Committee.
Aside from the editing to facilitate the reader's
understanding, the only deletions involve a very small amount of
confidential information regarding foreign central banks, businesses.
and persons that are identified or identifiable. Deleted passages are
indicated by gaps in the text. All information deleted in this manner
is exempt from disclosure under applicable provisions of the Freedom
of Information Act.
