Dec 23 (Reuters) - The Committee on Foreign Investment

in the United States (CFIUS) has told the White House it is

unable to reach a consensus on the national security risks

involved in Nippon Steel's ( NISTF ) proposed acquisition of

U.S. Steel, the Washington Post reported on Monday.

The high-level government review board delivered its final

evaluation of the deal late on Monday, the report said, citing

two people familiar with the matter.
