In accordance with the
Judicial Redress Act of 2015, relating to
the extension of certain Privacy Act
remedies to citizens of designated
countries, notice is given that the
Attorney General has designated the
United Kingdom as a ‘‘covered
country.’’
SUMMARY:
The designation herein is
effective on April 1, 2018, the date the
U.S.-EU Data Protection and Privacy
Agreement becomes applicable to the
United Kingdom.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Thomas Burrows, Associate Director,
Office of International Affairs, Criminal
Division, United States Department of
Justice, 1301 New York Avenue, Suite
900, Washington, DC 20005, 202–514–
0080.
DATES:
On
February 1, 2017, an executive
agreement entered into force between
the United States (‘‘U.S.’’) and the
European Union (‘‘EU’’) (collectively,
‘‘Parties’’) for the protection of personal
information relating to the prevention,
investigation, detection, and
prosecution of criminal offenses. The
agreement, commonly known in the
United States as the Data Protection and
Privacy Agreement (‘‘DPPA’’),
establishes a set of protections that the
Parties are to apply to personal
information exchanged for the purpose
of preventing, detecting, investigating,
or prosecuting criminal offenses. Article
19 of the DPPA establishes an obligation
for the Parties to provide, in their
domestic law, specific judicial redress
rights to each other’s citizens. The
Judicial Redress Act, Public Law 114–
126, 130 Stat. 282 (5 U.S.C. 552a note),
is implementing legislation for Article
19.
Under Article 27 of the DPPA,
Denmark, Ireland, and the United
Kingdom (‘‘UK’’) are excluded from the
Agreement unless the European
Commission (‘‘EC’’) notifies the U.S.
that those countries have decided that
the Agreement shall apply to them.
Such notice was provided for Ireland in
January 2017, and it was designated at
the same time as 25 other EU members.
On March 9, 2018, the EC notified the
U.S. that the DPPA shall apply to the
UK as of April 1, 2018. The U.S., under
the terms of the DPPA, is therefore
required to provide certain judicial
redress rights to citizens of the UK as of
April 1, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
This information collection is
required by the Immigration and
Nationality Act (INA), sections
103(a)(6); 203(b)(3); 212(a)(5)(A); 212(n),
(p), (t); and 214(c) [8 U.S.C. 1103(a)(6);
1153(b)(3); 1182(a)(5)(A); 1182(n), (p),

CFR 655.10, 655.731, and 656.40.
This ICR, OMB Control No. 1205–
0508, includes the collection of
information required for ETA to
determine the prevailing wages for job
opportunities under the H–1B, H–1B1,
E–3, H–2B, and permanent foreign labor
certification programs. Prior to
submitting foreign labor certification
applications to the Department for the
H–2B and permanent foreign labor
certification programs, employers must
obtain from ETA a prevailing wage for
their job opportunities based on the
occupation and location of intended
employment. Employers may also
request a prevailing wage for H–1B, H–
1B1, and E–3 labor condition
applications. The information ETA
collects from employers on the Form
ETA–9141, Application for Prevailing
Wage Determination, serves as the basis
by which the Secretary determines the
prevailing wages employers must pay
foreign workers under the above foreign
labor certification programs to ensure
employment of the foreign workers will
