Privacy Act of 1974

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Department of Education (ED) publishes this notice of a new system of records entitled ``Hotline Complaint Files of the Inspector General.'' The system will contain records of telephone calls and letters directed to the Office of Inspector General (OIG) Hotline citing complaints and allegations of wrongdoing concerning ED programs, ED operations, and recipients of ED-administered program funds. It also will contain information on OIG's handling of these complaints. The allegations reported through the Hotline may give rise to the opening of an investigation, audit, or other OIG inquiry or be referred elsewhere for resolution. The Department seeks comment on this new system of records described in this notice, in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act.
