SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ACTION:
I. Description of the Proposed System of
Records
The Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA) is proposing to establish a system
of records to perform legal workload
management and administration
activities associated with the operation
of the Office of General Counsel (OGC).
This system will be used for case
management, correspondence control,
and statistical analysis. Cases are
generated from matters brought to OGC
for consideration, review, response,
analysis, and/or comment. This system
of records will contain case tracking for
time and personnel, as well as pertinent
documents and case facts, which may
include data privileged under the
attorney-client relationship. These case
records will be used to provide
statistical and other information in
response to legitimate and reasonable
requests.
The Privacy Act of 1974 (5
U.S.C. 552(e)(4)) requires that all
agencies publish in the Federal Register
a notice of the existence and character
of their systems of records. Notice is
hereby given that the Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) is establishing a
new system of records entitled ‘‘General
Counsel Legal Automation Workload
System (GCLAWS)–VA’’ (144VA026).
DATES: Comments on the establishment
of this new system of records must be
received no later than October 19, 2007.
If no public comment is received, the
new system will become effective
October 19, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Written comments may be
submitted through https://
www.Regulations.gov; by mail or handdelivery to the Director, Regulations
Management (00REG), Department of
Veterans Affairs, 810 Vermont Ave.,
NW., Room 1068, Washington, DC
20420; or by fax to (202) 273–9026.
Copies of comments received will be

II. Proposed Routine Use Disclosures of
Data in the System
VA is proposing to establish the
following routine use disclosures of the
information that will be maintained in
the system.
1. VA may disclose information to
Congressional offices in order to
respond to inquiries from those offices
on behalf of constituents who seek
information from the Agency.
VA must be able to respond to
inquiries directed to it from
Congressional staff offices on behalf of
constituents. The fact that the
constituents have asked for assistance
from their Representative or Senator
indicates that they wish the agency to
respond to these inquiries. The routine
use provides disclosure authority to
disclose only the information necessary
to respond to the Congressional inquiry
on behalf of the record subject.
2. VA may disclose information to the
National Archives and Records
Administration (NARA) as required to
comply with statutory requirements to
disclose information to NARA for it to
perform its statutory records
management activities.
The VA must promulgate this routine
use to satisfy the requirements of the
Privacy Act for disclosure of
information to these agencies without
the prior written authorizations of the
record subjects for the agencies to
perform their duties.
3. VA may disclose information to
entities or individuals with which or
with whom VA has an agreement or
Dated: September 11, 2007.
