Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting
Firm


To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of:

   Nuveen Equity Premium Income Fund
   Nuveen Equity Premium Opportunity Fund
   Nuveen Equity Premium Advantage Fund
   Nuveen Equity Premium and Growth Fund
   Nuveen Global Government Enhanced Income Fund
   Nuveen Global Value Opportunities Fund



In planning and performing our audits of the financial
statements of Nuveen Equity Premium Income Fund,
Nuveen Equity Premium Opportunity Fund, Nuveen
Equity Premium Advantage Fund, Nuveen Equity
Premium and Growth Fund, Nuveen Global Government
Enhanced Income Fund, and Nuveen Global Value
Opportunities Fund (the Funds) as of and for the periods
ended December 31, 2006, in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), we considered the Funds internal
control over financial reporting, including control activities
for safeguarding securities, as a basis for designing our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our
opinion on the financial statements and to comply with
the requirements of Form N-SAR, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Funds internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The management of the Funds is responsible for
over financial reporting.  In fulfilling this responsibility,
estimates and judgments by management are required
to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
controls.  A funds internal control over financial reporting
is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation of financial statements for external purposes
in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.  Such internal control over financial reporting
includes policies and procedures that provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of a funds
assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect
misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the
policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A control deficiency exists when the design or operation
of a control does not allow management or employees,
in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely
basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or
combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects
the Funds ability to initiate, authorize, record, process or
report external financial data reliably in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles such that there
is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of
the Funds annual or interim financial statements that is
more than inconsequential will not be prevented or
detected.  A material weakness is a control deficiency, or
combination of control deficiencies, that results in more
than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of
the annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected.

Our consideration of the Funds internal control over
financial reporting was for the limited purpose described
in the first paragraph and would not necessarily disclose
all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting
that might be significant deficiencies or material
weaknesses under standards established by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
However, we noted no deficiencies in the Funds internal
control over financial reporting and its operation,
including controls for safeguarding securities that we
consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as
of December 31, 2006.

This report is intended solely for the information and use
of management and the Board of Trustees of the Funds
and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other
than these specified parties.
