ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Administrator for Federal Procurement Policy, in concert
with the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council, is sponsoring a
meeting to solicit public comments on the implementation of Section
4301(b) of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996
(Pub. L. 104-106) (the Act). The Act requires the Administrator for
Federal Procurement Policy to issue for public comment a proposal to
amend the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) to remove certification
requirements for contractors and offerors that are not specifically
imposed by statute. The Act provides the Administrator with authority
to retain, under certain circumstances, certification requirements that
are not specifically imposed by statute. The Administrator's proposal
to implement the Act was published in the Federal Register on September
12, 1996 (61 FR 48354). In an effort to obtain public input in the
rulemaking process, the FAR Council is inviting interested parties to
participate in a public meeting to provide comments on the
Administrator's proposed rule.
DATES: A public meeting will be conducted at the address shown below
from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., eastern daylight time, on October 9, 1996.
ADDRESSES: The public meeting will be held at the White House
Conference Center, Truman Room, 726 Jackson Place, NW, Washington, DC
20503. Individuals who would like to participate or submit a formal
statement shall, by October 2, 1996, notify: Defense Acquisition
Regulations Council, Attn: Mr. Michael Mutty, PDUSD(A&T)DP(DAR), IMD
