Representatives in Agency Adjudicative
Proceedings, 87 FR 1721 (Jan. 12, 2022),
which offers best practices for agencies
to consider when developing rules
governing the participation and conduct
of attorneys and non-attorneys who
represent parties in adjudicative
proceedings. Recommendation 2021–9
also recommended that the Office of the
Chair ‘‘consider promulgating model
rules of conduct’’ consistent with the
Recommendation and, in doing so,
‘‘seek the input of a diverse array of
agency officials and members of the
public, including representatives who
appear before agencies, and the
American Bar Association.’’ In 2023, the
Chair convened a Working Group of
public- and private-sector
representatives to develop Model Rules
of Representative Conduct that, as
contemplated by Recommendation
2021–9, ‘‘account for variation in agency
practice and afford agencies the
flexibility to determine which rules
apply to their adjudicative
proceedings.’’
The Working Group was composed of
distinguished experts in the field of
administrative adjudication, ranging
from adjudicators and agency officials to
private practitioners and academics. It
first convened in February 2023 and met
regularly throughout the following year
to consider and ultimately approve a
final draft of these Model Rules. The
resulting Model Rules—which create a
transparent, easily accessible set of
guidelines that facilitate a wide range of
representation in a broad array of
agency proceedings—are intended to
help federal agencies amend or develop
their rules governing representatives in
adjudicative proceedings consistent
with the best practices identified in
Recommendation 2021–9.

Model Rules of Representative Conduct
project—including drafts, a listing of the
Working Group members, and other
