       This is to notify you formally, pursuant to Rule VIII of

       After consultation with the Office of General Counsel, I 
     have determined that compliance with the subpoena is 
     consistent with the precedents and privileges of the House.
           Sincerely,
                                                 Michael M. Honda,
     Member of Congress.
