Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Scott D. O’Malia
Today, after obtaining permission from the Commission’s Office of the General Counsel, I am releasing my dissent in a redacted form to the request by the Division of Enforcement (DOE) to issue an omnibus order of investigation that, through an “absent objection” process, could potentially be extended continuously without the opportunity for a Commission vote. I believe three steps must be taken to ensure that the Commission is executing its enforcement authority in a transparent and legally sound manner.

Dissenting Statement Of CFTC Commissioner Scott D. O’Malia To The Division Of Enforcement’s Request That The Commission Issue The Omnibus Order Designating Officers Of The Division Of Enforcement With The Authority To Issue Subpoena And Take Testimony
I decline to authorize issuance of the omnibus Investigation Order, delegating to the Division of Enforcement sweeping subpoena power to investigate possible [redacted] activities [redacted]. I objected to the issuance of a similar omnibus order, which expired on May 20, 2013. While I strongly support a robust enforcement regime, I object to the process of waving the Commission’s power to authorize an investigation, especially in the post Dodd-Frank environment.
