Department of Justice October 3, 2006 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This rule amends part 16 of title 28 of the Code of Federal Regulations to reflect the applicability of Privacy Act Systems of Records Notices and any associated exemptions to the newly established National Security Division (NSD) at the Department of Justice.
