Federal Acquisition Regulation; Certification Requirements; Public Meeting

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.
