Privacy Act of 1974; Implementation

The Department of Justice, Tax Division, is amending 28 CFR part 16 to exempt a newly revised Privacy Act system of records entitled "Files of Applicants For Attorney and Non-Attorney Positions with the Tax Division, Justice/TAX-003," as described in today's notice section of the Federal Register, from 5 U.S.C. 552a(c)(3) and (d)(1). The exemptions will be applied only to the extent that information in a record is subject to exemption pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(k)(5). The exemptions are necessary to protect the confidentiality of employment records. The Department also is deleting as obsolete provisions exempting two former Tax Division systems of records: "Freedom of Information/Privacy Act Request Files, Justice/TAX-004;" and "Tax Division Special Project Files, Justice/TAX-005." The records in TAX-004 are now covered by a Departmentwide system notice, "Freedom of Information Act, Privacy Act, and Mandatory Declassification Review Requests and Administrative Appeals, DOJ-004". The relevant records in TAX-005 are now part of the revised system entitled "Criminal Tax Case Files, Special Project Files, Docket Cards, and Associated Records, Justice/TAX-001."
