OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
5 CFR Part 950
RIN 3206-AG50
Solicitation of Federal Civilian and Uniformed Service Personnel
for Contributions to Private Voluntary Organizations
AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This document clarifies the final regulations governing the
Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) which were published on November 24,
1995, (60 FR 57889). Included in those regulations are the eligibility
criteria and public accountability standards for participating
charitable organizations.
EFFECTIVE DATE: November 24, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jeffrey C. Lee, 202-606-2564.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The final regulations that are the subject of this correction,
superseded 5 CFR 950 on the effective date and affect organizations
applying for participation in the Combined Federal Campaign.
Need for Correction
As published, the final regulations regarding the public
accountability standard for public and government support may mislead
an otherwise eligible organization which actually has appropriate
funding sources from applying and/or participating in the CFC. The
correcting language sets forth the proper accountability process, and
allows for the correct computation of funding sources to determine if
the organization meets CFC standards. In addition, Sec. 950.501(b)
refers to a section which was eliminated from the proposed regulations
and combined with Sec. 950.501 of the final regulations. Applicant
charitable organizations will benefit from these clarifications.
List of Subjects in 5 CFR Part 950
Administrative practice and procedures, Charitable contributions,
Government employee, Military personnel, Nonprofit organizations,
Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
