An agreement was signed on the new administration's access to information from US federal agencies. The transition period will be carried out at private expense, without the use of government buildings and technology.

Trump's team signed a memorandum on the transfer of power with the Joe Biden administration. This is reported by USA Today, reports UNN.

Details

The agreement gives the new administration access to information from federal agencies that is necessary to prepare for taking over the government. According to the publication, the established schedule for the transfer of presidential power is designed to facilitate the transfer of control. However, the Trump team missed the September 1 and October 1 deadlines to sign planned agreements with the Office of common services and the White House.

Now, the transition period of Trump and US Vice President-elect J. D. Vance will be carried out at the expense of private funding.

The agreement also stipulates that the Trump team will not use government buildings or technologies provided by the Office of common services. This, in turn, is likely to raise security concerns, given recent attempts to hack at least one of the presidential campaigns. The terms set out by the Trump transition team largely contradict protocol and some established procedures that have been used for decades during the transfer of power.

Max Steer, president and CEO of the Public Service Partnership, which oversees the Center for the transition of presidential power, said the signing of the agreement marks "a positive step towards an effective transfer of power.

This agreement opens up direct access to federal agency information, which is crucial to the new administration's readiness to start managing from day one and is crucial to the success of the transition

Max Steer added.
