Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 70 / Wednesday, April 12, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
software for items or processes acquired
under the program.
The commercial procedures
authorized by the rule are intended to
ease the transition of nontraditional
defense contractors from other
transactions agreements to standard
DoD contracts and, therefore, are
expected to improve opportunities for
such entities to receive DoD contract
awards. In fiscal year 2005, DoD
awarded 78 other transaction
agreements totaling $150 million in
value. Of these, 22 were awarded to
small business concerns, totaling
approximately $40 million in value.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply, because the rule does not
impose any information collection
requirements that require the approval
of the Office of Management and Budget
under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.

SUMMARY: DoD has issued a final rule
amending the Defense Federal

(DFARS) to update text regarding the
application of labor laws to Government
contracts. This rule is a result of a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
DFARS Transformation is a major
DoD initiative to dramatically change
the purpose and content of the DFARS.
The objective is to improve the
efficiency and effectiveness of the
acquisition process, while allowing the
acquisition workforce the flexibility to
innovate. The transformed DFARS will
contain only requirements of law, DoDwide policies, delegations of FAR
authorities, deviations from FAR
requirements, and policies/procedures
that have a significant effect beyond the
internal operating procedures of DoD or
a significant cost or administrative
impact on contractors or offerors.
Additional information on the DFARS
Transformation initiative is available at
https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/
dfars/transformation/index.htm.
This final rule is a result of the
DFARS Transformation initiative. The
DFARS changes—
• Update text addressing labor
requirements and labor relations matters
that affect DoD contracts; and
• Delete text addressing procedures
for referral of labor relations matters to
the appropriate authorities; for reporting
labor disputes and the impact of those
disputes on DoD requirements; for
E:\FR\FM\12APR1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 70 / Wednesday, April 12, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
conducting investigations of suspected
violations of labor standards; and for
preparation of notices and waiver
requests relating to certain labor
requirements. Text on these subjects has
been relocated to the new DFARS
companion resource, Procedures,
Guidance, and Information (PGI),
available at https://www.acq.osd.mil/
dpap/dars/pgi.
DoD published a proposed rule at 70
FR 39978 on July 12, 2005. DoD
received no comments on the proposed
rule. DoD has adopted the proposed rule
as a final rule, with an additional
relocation of internal DoD reporting
requirements, from DFARS 222.101–3 to
PGI.
This rule was not subject to Office of
Management and Budget review under
Executive Order 12866, dated
September 30, 1993.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
DoD certifies that this final rule will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities
within the meaning of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.,
because the rule updates and
streamlines DFARS text, but makes no
significant change to DoD contracting
policy or the application of labor laws
to DoD contracts.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does
not apply, because the rule does not
impose any information collection
requirements that require the approval
of the Office of Management and Budget
under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.

Accordingly, the interim rule

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
DoD published an interim rule at 70
FR 57191 on September 30, 2005, to
implement Section 579 of Division E of
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2003 (Pub. L. 108–7); Section 506 of
Division D of the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, 2004 (Pub. L. 108–
199); and Section 506 of Division D of
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2005 (Pub. L. 108–447). These statutes
require that a bilateral agreement
providing for U.S. assistance to a foreign
country must specify that the U.S.
assistance shall be exempt from taxation
by the foreign government. Therefore,
the foreign government is prohibited
from imposing taxes on commodities
acquired under contracts funded by
such U.S. assistance. This DFARS rule
addresses the responsibilities of the
contractor and the contracting officer
regarding the prohibition.
DoD received no comments on the
interim rule. Therefore, DoD has
adopted the interim rule as a final rule
without change.
This rule was not subject to Office of
Management and Budget review under
Executive Order 12866, dated
September 30, 1993.
(a)(1) Use of the clause at FAR

SUMMARY: DoD has issued a final rule amending the Defense Federal
Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to update text regarding the
application of labor laws to Government contracts. This rule is a
result of a transformation initiative undertaken by DoD to dramatically
change the purpose and content of the DFARS.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
DFARS Transformation is a major DoD initiative to dramatically
change the purpose and content of the DFARS. The objective is to
improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the acquisition process,
while allowing the acquisition workforce the flexibility to innovate.
The transformed DFARS will contain only requirements of law, DoD-wide
policies, delegations of FAR authorities, deviations from FAR
requirements, and policies/procedures that have a significant effect
beyond the internal operating procedures of DoD or a significant cost
or administrative impact on contractors or offerors. Additional
information on the DFARS Transformation initiative is available at
https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/dfars/transformation/index.htm.
This final rule is a result of the DFARS Transformation initiative.
The DFARS changes--
Update text addressing labor requirements and labor
relations matters that affect DoD contracts; and
Delete text addressing procedures for referral of labor
relations matters to the appropriate authorities; for reporting labor
disputes and the impact of those disputes on DoD requirements; for
[[Page 18670]]
conducting investigations of suspected violations of labor standards;
and for preparation of notices and waiver requests relating to certain
labor requirements. Text on these subjects has been relocated to the
new DFARS companion resource, Procedures, Guidance, and Information
(PGI), available at https://www.acq.osd.mil/dpap/dars/pgi.
DoD published a proposed rule at 70 FR 39978 on July 12, 2005. DoD
received no comments on the proposed rule. DoD has adopted the proposed
rule as a final rule, with an additional relocation of internal DoD
reporting requirements, from DFARS 222.101-3 to PGI.
This rule was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review
under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
DoD certifies that this final rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the
meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq.,
because the rule updates and streamlines DFARS text, but makes no
significant change to DoD contracting policy or the application of
labor laws to DoD contracts.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply, because the rule does
not impose any information collection requirements that require the
approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501,
et seq.
