ECONOMIC POLICY COUNCIL: Records, 1985-88

The Economic Policy Council (EPC) was one of the two remaining policy advisory groups after Donald Regan became Chief of Staff in 1985. Mr. Regan revised the first administration’s system of Cabinet Councils, reducing them from seven to two Councils. They were the Economic Policy Council and the Domestic Policy Council. This collection contains material for the EPC. It is more than likely that some of this material is the staff work of Eugene McAllister, Executive Secretary for the EPC. The Library will determine at a later date if some of this material will be part of the Eugene McCallister collection. In addition, some of the earlier material in this collection will probably be moved to the Cabinet Council on Economic Affairs for the first administration.
