(11:20:14) Senator FAIRCLOTH. But they wanted to replace Kulka with Fiske? Mr. FOREMAN. Senator, I don't know that. I remember Ms. Hanson making a comment about looking at the scope of Mr. Fiske's responsibilities from the Justice Department, and someone making a comment that it included civil claims. That's all I remember about that. I have no idea what the White House wanted. The CHAIRMAN. Let me just say, the time has expired. If you've got one follow-up, we're about to go and vote; then we're going to recess. If you can ask it quickly, we'll do it, and then recess. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Did you talk with Robert Fiske before he made a decision not to prosecute anybody in this matter? 352 Mr. FOREMAN. No, sir. Senator FAIRCLOTH. Thank you. The CHAIRMAN. The Committee is going to recess briefly. We've got three votes in a row. The last two votes have shortened time periods. Once the voting has finished on the Senate floor, well come back and we'll stay here until approximately 1:15 P.m. That will give everybody guidance as to the length of this recess. Well be back here, I would think, within about 30 minutes. Senator DOMENICI. Mr. Chairman, do you not have a Democratic Caucus at lunch today? The CHAIRMAN. I announced earlier, Senator Domenici, we're going to take a formal recess for the two caucuses from 1:15 p.m. to 2:15 p.m. The Committee stands in recess for the voting period.
