My suggestion is close to Kevin's but without the word responsible.
Usually, it is a general statement only and does not address to particular person. Only who may require the information provided.

敬啟者
"To whom it may concern" is a rather traditional way of addressing somebody whose name you do not know or to an unspecified addressee. Therefore, I think the traditional Chinese expression 敬啟者 is the nearest equivalence to it. In simplified Chinese for the mainland China, 尊敬的先生﹝或女士﹞may be used as well.
