Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration May 20, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act SAMHSA proposes to add a new routine use to its inventory of SORNs subject to the Privacy Act of 1974 (Title 5 United States Code [U.S.C.] 552a) authorizing disclosure of individually identifiable information to assist in efforts to respond to a suspected or confirmed breach of the security or confidentiality of information maintained in these systems of records. The new routine use will be prioritized in the next consecutive numbered order of routine uses in each system notice and will be included in the next published notice as part of SAMHSA's normal SORN review process.
