WASHINGTON--Two members of the House Financial Services Committee will ask the Obama administration's new Treasury secretary to unilaterally create an Office of Insurance Information within that agency, it was learned.
The request is contained in a letter obtained by National Underwriter, which was drafted by Reps. Melissa Bean, D-Ill., and Ed Royce, R-Calif., in anticipation that the Senate will confirm Secretary-designate Timothy Geithner.
Their message, still to be formally sent, would ask that move as one of Mr. Geithner's first steps on taking office.
