Practices and Procedures

The Merit Systems Protection Board (the Board) is amending its rules of practice and procedure to prescribe how a Federal employee witness in a Board proceeding may obtain a Board order that the employing agency grant him or her official time for participation in the proceeding. The Board is also amending its rules for enforcement proceedings to clarify that those rules apply to proceedings for enforcement of orders issued in the course of the Board's adjudicatory proceedings, such as an order that an agency provide official time to a Federal employee or a protective order to protect a witness from harassment, as well as to final Board decisions.
