28 CFR Part 16
[AAG/A Order No. 015–2005]
Privacy Act of 1974; Implementation
Department of Justice.
Proposed rule.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Department of Justice,
Tax Division, proposes to amend 28
CFR part 16 to exempt a newly revised
Privacy Act system of records entitled
‘‘Files of Applicants For Attorney and
Non-Attorney Positions with the Tax
Division, Justice/TAX–003,’’ as
described in today’s notice section of
the Federal Register, from 5 U.S.C.
552a(c)(3), (d)(1), and (e)(1). The
exemptions will be applied only to the
extent that information in a record is
subject to exemption pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 552a(k)(2) and (k)(5). The
exemptions are necessary to protect the
confidentiality of employment records.
The Department also proposes to delete
as obsolete provisions exempting two
former Tax Division systems of records:
‘‘Freedom of Information/Privacy Act
Request Files, Justice/TAX–004;’’ and
‘‘Tax Division Special Project Files,
Justice/TAX–005.’’ The records in Tax004 are now covered by a
Departmentwide system notice,
‘‘Freedom of Information Act, Privacy
Act, and Mandatory Declassification
Review Requests and Administrative
Appeals, DOJ–004’’. The relevant
records in TAX–005 are now part of the
revised system entitled ‘‘Criminal Tax
Case Files, Special Project Files, Docket
Cards, and Associated Records, Justice/
TAX–001.’’

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 220 / Wednesday, November 16, 2005 / Proposed Rules
This order
relates to individuals rather than small
business entities. Nevertheless,
pursuant to the requirements of the
Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601–
612, this order will not have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
List of Subjects in 28 CFR Part 16
Administrative Practices and
Procedures, Courts, Freedom of
Information, Sunshine Act and Privacy.
Pursuant to the authority vested in the
Attorney General by 5 U.S.C. 552a and
delegated to me by Attorney General
Order No. 793–78, it is proposed to
amend 28 CFR part 16 as follows:
PART 16—PRODUCTION OR
DISCLOSURE OF MATERIAL OR
INFORMATION
1. The authority for part 16 continues
to read as follows:
Authority: 5 U.S.C. 301, 552, 552a, 552b(g),
and 553; 18 U.S.C. 4203(a)(1); 28 U.S.C. 509,
510, 534; 31 U.S.C. 3717, and 9701.
2. Section 16.93 is amended by:
a. Removing the first sentence of
paragraph (a)(2);
b. Revising paragraph (b) introductory
text;
c. Revising paragraphs (e) and (f).
Therefore, amend the section to read
as follows:
§ 16.93 Exemption of Tax Division
Systems—limited access.
*
*
*
*
*
(b) The system of records listed under
paragraph (a)(1) of this section is
exempted for the reasons set forth
below, from the following provisions of
5 U.S.C. 552a:
*
*
*
*
*
(e) The following system of records is
exempt from subsections (c)(3), (d)(1),
and (e)(1) of the Privacy Act pursuant to
5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(2) and (k)(5): Files of
Applicants for Attorney and NonAttorney Positions with the Tax
Division, Justice/TAX–003. These
exemptions apply only to the extent that
information in a record is subject to
exemption pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
552a(k)(2) and (k)(5).
(f) Exemption from the particular
subsections is justified for the following
reasons:
(1) From subsection (c)(3) because an
accounting could reveal the identity of
confidential sources and result in an
unwarranted invasion of the privacy of
others. Many persons are contacted
who, without an assurance of
anonymity, refuse to provide
information concerning an applicant for
a position with the Tax Division.
VerDate Aug<31>2005
12:36 Nov 15, 2005
Jkt 208001
Disclosure of an accounting could reveal
the identity of a source of information
and constitutes a breach of the promise
of confidentiality by the Tax Division.
This would result in the reduction in
the free flow of information vital to a
determination of an applicant’s
qualifications and suitability for federal
employment.
(2) From subsection (d)(1) because
disclosure of records in the system
could reveal the identity of confidential
sources and result in an unwarranted
invasion of the privacy of others. Many
persons are contacted who, without an
assurance of anonymity, refuse to
provide information concerning an
applicant for a Tax Division position.
Access could reveal the identity of the
source of the information and constitute
a breach of the promise of
confidentiality on the part of the Tax
Division. Such breaches ultimately
would restrict the free flow of
information vital to a determination of
an applicant’s qualifications and
suitability.
(3) From subsection (e)(1) because in
the collection of information for
investigation and evaluative purposes, it
is impossible to determine in advance
what exact information may be of
assistance in determining the
qualification and suitability of an
applicant. Information which may
appear irrelevant, when combined with
other seemingly irrelevant information,
can on occasion provide a composite
picture of an applicant for a position
which assists in determining whether
the applicant should be hired.

and described in today’s notice section

The exemptions are necessary to
preclude the compromise of institution
security, to better ensure the safety of
inmates, Bureau personnel and the
public, to better protect third party
privacy, to protect law enforcement and
investigatory information, and/or to
otherwise ensure the effective
performance of the Bureau’s law
