Download as PDF 41942 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 170 / Tuesday, September 5, 2017 / Notices arbitration decisions rather than their full text, which are sometimes quite lengthy. This saves publishing costs for the Department and time for interested members of the public. The Department has also provided copies of full arbitration panel decisions to members of the public upon request. The time it took to draft these synopses resulted in a publishing backlog, however. Therefore, the Department has decided to change its practice in a way that will allow it to comply with the statutory requirement for publication and to provide the text of the arbitration panel decisions to the public more quickly and conveniently and at minimal cost to the Department. The Department will now make the full text of arbitration panel decisions under the Act available on the Department’s Web site, and we will add older, archived decisions as they become available in the proper format and are made accessible to individuals with disabilities under section 508 of Case name Docket No. Kansas Dept. for Children and Families v.
