D.C. 20503 MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRIVACY POINTS OF CONTACT FROM: Robert P. BedellN/e.-. Deputy Administrator Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs SUBJECT: Privacy Act Materials IDD 4 Pc:7:1.7:7'V I 6 - This memorandum, contains three attachments: ? o A copy of the President's Privacy Act Report for CY 1982 and 1983, dated December 4, 1985; o A copy of OMB Circular No. A-130, dated December 12, 1985; and o A supplemental instruction sheet for providing information to support the President's 1985 Privacy Act Report to the Congress. OMB Circular No. A-130 is a policy directive to Federal agencies on the management of Federal information resources. It sets basic guidelines for collecting, processing arid disseminating information and for the management of Federal information systems and technology. It also revises existing directives on privacy, computer security, and cost accounting for Federal computer and telecommunications facilities. Appendix I of the Circular will be of special interest to managers of agency Privacy Act programs. It replaces OMB Circular No. A-108, "Federal Agency Responsibilities for Maintaining Records About Individuals." Please note, however, that this Appendix does not replace the OMB Guidelines on Implementing the Privacy Act of 1974 published in the Federal Register on July 9, 1975 (40 FR 28949). In addition to consolidating the basic Circular A-108 and its Transmittal Memoranda into a single document, the new Appendix I adds or alters certain responsibilities and procedures: o It provides a timetable for agencies to conduct certain reviews of their implementing activities or record holdings, e.g., "review annually agency recordkeeping and disposal practices...."

Instructions for reporting statistical and other information in support of the President's yearly report to Congress are contained in paragraph 4 of the Appendix. This information is essentially the same as that which we have collected for the past four years. It is due no later than April 30, 1986. The third attachment to this memorandum contains additional instructions for submitting data for the annual report. This information is due no later than June 30, 1986. Send both submissions to: The Office of Management and Budget Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs NEOB Room 3235 Washington, D.C. 20503 Direct questions to Robert N. Veeder, of my staff, at 395-4814.

Please provide whatever information you have, including documents where available, in response to the questions below. o PUBLIC NOTICE. The public notice provisions of the Privacy Act call for publication in the Federal Register of systems notices, routine uses, and agency rules. While such publication meets the legal requirements of the Act, it is not the most accessible source for ordinary individuals to find out about agency publications and practices. Does your agency do anything to supplement its Federal Register publications?, e.g., issuing pamphlets, providing abbreviated lists of systems, providing a toll free number for assistance, etc. o MICRO COMPUTER POLICY. How many of your agency's systems of records are contained in stand-alone micro computers, i.e.. on floppy or hard disk? Does your agency have written policies for who may have access and for safeguarding and disposing of records? o AUTOMATION. What percentage of your agency's systems of records are automated, either in whole or part? What percentage of all of the individuals in your agency's systems of records are contained in automated systems? o FOIA/PA RELATIONSHIP. How does your agency process first party requests for access to Privacy Act records that (1) cite the Privacy Act alone; (2) cite the FOIA alone; (3) cite both Acts; (4) cite neither Act? Does your agency have a written policy on processing these kinds of requests? o MATCHING PROGRAMS. OMB Memorandum M-84-6, dated December 29, 1983 transmitted a "Computer Match Checklist" for agencies to use in documenting matching programs. The memorandum requires agency to complete the checklist immediately following publication of the report of the matching program in the Federal Register, and to maintain checklists on file for OMB review. Send copies of these checklists for all matching programs for which a Federal Register report was published in 1985. You should ensure consistency with the figures you report in paragraph D. of Section I of these instructions. o PRIVACY ACT TRAINING. Your answers to the following questions will help us assess the state of such training and determine the need for additional training: What is your agency's policy toward providing Privacy Act training to its employees, (e.g., required for all new employees, required only for employees who work with Privacy Act matters, provided only to those who request it, etc.)? !

How many employees were trained in CY 1985 (if possible, by category e.g., executive level, legal staff, clerical or administrative staff, ADP staff). Use of Other Privacy Act Training.
