SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Transparency promotes accountability and provides information to the public about government activities and initiatives. For FDA, providing information to the public in a timely, user-friendly manner is important to enhance the work of the agency. Government transparency and accountability is a priority for the Obama Administration. On January 21, 2009, President Obama issued two memoranda to the heads of executive departments and agencies regarding PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 openness in government.1 In the memorandum on Transparency and Open Government (‘‘Transparency and Open Government memorandum’’), the Administration has pledged to take appropriate action, consistent with law and policy, to disclose information to the public rapidly, and in a form that is easily accessible and user friendly. Executive departments and agencies have been charged with harnessing new technologies to make information about agency operations and decisions available online and readily available to the public. Further, executive departments and agencies have been instructed to solicit public input to identify information of greatest use to the public. In the Transparency and Open Government memorandum, President Obama directed the Chief Technology Officer, in coordination with the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and the Administrator of General Services, to coordinate the development of recommendations for an Open Government Directive. This Directive, to be issued by the Director of the OMB, is to instruct executive departments and agencies to take specific actions implementing the principles set forth in this memorandum. In the memorandum on the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (‘‘FOIA memorandum’’), the Administration noted that principles embodied in the FOIA express our Nation’s commitment to an open government. Executive agencies were instructed to adopt a presumption in favor of disclosure with respect to all decisions involving the FOIA. The Attorney General was directed to issue new guidelines governing the FOIA to the heads of executive departments and agencies. On March 19, 2009, the Attorney General issued guidelines for implementing the FOIA in a memorandum for heads of executive departments and agencies.2 Regarding the presumption of openness, the Attorney General strongly encouraged agencies to make discretionary disclosures, but also noted 1 Presidential Documents, Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies on Transparency and Open Government (January 21, 2009) (74 FR 4685, January 26, 2009), available at https://www.whitehouse.gov/open/; Presidential Documents, Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies on Freedom of Information Act (January 21, 2009) (74 FR 4683, January 26, 2009), available at https://www.gpo.gov/ fdsys/pkg/FR–2009–01–26/pdf/E9–1773.pdf. 2 Office of the Attorney General, Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies on The Freedom of Information Act (March 19, 2009), available at https:// www.usdoj.gov/ag/foia-memo-march2009.pdf.
