The report also points out possible criminal offences relating to Climategate, including a potential violation of the Shelby Amendment, which requires open access to the results of government-funded research, in addition to a violation of the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) policies on scientific misconduct.

It also states that scientists involved could be in breach of the Federal False Statements and False Claims Acts, charges that could carry civil and criminal penalties.

Furthermore, an obstruction of Congress in Congressional Proceeds may constitute an obstruction of justice according to the report.

Inhofe's call for a criminal investigation will include a request for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to re-examine the classification of Carbon Dioxide as a pollutant.

"The EPA accepted the IPCC's erroneous claims wholesale, without doing its own independent review," Inhofe said about the EPA's decision to rely on information from the U.N.'s International Panel on Climate Change.

"So EPA's endangerment finding rests on bad science," he added.

An overturning of the EPA's CO2 Endangerment Finding would decimate moves by the Obama Administration to regulate carbon emissions and introduce carbon taxes.

However, the proposed investigation will have to be approved by a Democratic majority that has previously blocked any attempt by Inhofe for investigations into climate change science.
