Issued by Special Counsel Office
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) has submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to reinstate a previously approved information collection that has expired. This notice provides the public an opportunity to comment during a 30-day period before OMB makes a final decision. OSC is statutorily required to conduct an annual survey evaluating its operations and the effectiveness of its services, including those related to Prohibited Personnel Practices (PPP), whistleblower disclosures, and Hatch Act advisory opinions.
