Privacy Act of 1974; Revised System of Records

The General Services Administration (GSA) is publishing a final notice of a revision to the government-wide system of records, Contracted Travel Services Program (GSA/GOVT-4). This final notice incorporates changes based on a comment in response to a notice originally published for public comment on May 2, 2003, proposing to revise the system to include a contracted government-wide electronic travel service (eTS) that would require a new category of travel service provider for maintaining information in a comprehensive travel services system for travelers on official Federal business, from initial travel authorization to the final accounting. The one comment received by GSA expressed concern that the "categories of individuals covered by the system" category included others besides the individuals who travel at government expense and that this would allow retrievability of records by the names of third parties. This final notice addresses that concern by limiting the categories of individuals covered by the system to individuals on official travel for the Federal government.
