AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Notice of limitation on the recognition of national
federations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) regulations at
5 CFR Section 950.301(a) which states that ``the Director may from time
to time place a moratorium on the recognition of national federations,
I hereby establish such action for a two year period, beginning with
the national application process for the 1998 campaign.
This moratorium will provide an opportunity for the Office of
Personnel Management to strengthen the monitoring and auditing process,
as well as capability to ensure that national federations meet and
operate in accordance with the public accountability standards of 5 CFR
Section 950.203 and conform to the requirements of 5 CFR Section
950.301.
This action does not prohibit any charity from applying to the CFC
national listing as an unaffiliated organization, or from applying to
the 20 existing federations, which currently represent 804 of the 1158
charitable organizations. A list of the existing federations is
attached.
EFFECTIVE DATES: 1998 and 1999.
