Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin said he’s been told by ethics officials in his department that he’s in compliance with government ethics requirements even though his forms haven’t been certified by the top federal watchdog.

“I’ve been advised by Treasury that I am in full compliance and have no ethical issues,” Mnuchin said Thursday at a Senate Finance Committee hearing.
