Administrative Practice and Procedure, Reporting and Recording
Requirements, Title 6: ``Pay, Leave, and Allowances'', ``Policy and
Procedures Manual for the Guidance of Federal Agencies''
AGENCY: General Accounting Office.
ACTION: Notice of document availability.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: As part of its mandate to provide agencies useful guidance on
accounting and internal control matters, GAO periodically updates and
revises parts of its ``Policy and Procedures Manual for Guidance of
Federal Agencies.'' This notice indicates that proposed revisions to
portions of Title 6, ``Pay, Leave, and Allowances,'' of GAO's ``Policy
and Procedures Manual,'' are available from GAO for review and comment.
These proposed revisions are intended to reflect changes in technology
as well as changes in the law which have occurred since the last
edition. Comments are being sought as part of the due process to revise
portions of Title 6 and will be considered in the finalizing the
revision.
DATES: Comments must be received by December 18, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the Title 6 draft are available by (1) pick-up at
Document Distribution, U.S. General Accounting Office, Room 1100, 700
4th Street, NW. (corner of 4th and G Streets, NW.), Washington, DC.,
(2) mail from U.S. General Accounting Office, P.O. Box 6015,
Gaithersburg, MD 20884-6015, or (3) phone at 202-512-6000 or FAX 301-

Information Management Division, attention: Bruce Michelson, Room 6B12,
U.S. General Accounting Office, 441 G Street, NW., Washington, DC
20548.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bruce Michelson, 202-512-9366.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The revisions to Title 6 cover two main
parts: time and attendance and the order of withholding precedence for
deductions from federal employee pay. The changes to T & A reporting
are a result of advancing technology and current initiatives to
streamline and simplify administrative operations. This revision
replaces chapter 3.
The changes on the order of withholding precedence are a result of
regulations recently issued by the Office of Personnel Management in
response to the requirements of the Hatch Act Reform Amendments of 1993
(Pub. L. 103-94), sec. 9, that was passed subsequent to the last
revision of Title 6. This revision replaces section 5.3 in chapter 5.
Gene L. Dodaro,
Assistant Comptroller General.
