1Opinion of the Court

STARR, Circuit Judge.

This action was brought under the Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552 (1982), and the Government in the Sunshine Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552b (1982), seeking relief from the- failure of the Council of Economic Advisers (“CEA” or “Council”) to comply with those two statutes. The District Court dismissed the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”) claim, but also opined that summary judgment for CEA would be warranted in any event. In addition, the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of the CEA on the Government in the Sunshine Act (“Sunshine Act”) claim. We affirm.
