Congress charged ACUS with arranging for the "interchange among administrative agencies of information potentially useful in improving administrative procedure" (5 U.S.C. § 594). As part of this mission, ACUS regularly issues short, one-page Information Interchange Bulletins on discrete topics of administrative procedure. These Bulletins provide useful information for agency officials on legal issues they are likely to encounter as they carry out their work. The topics are often drawn from ACUS reports and recommendations, but they are intended solely to provide valuable information and do not recommend reforms to agency practices.
Please contact Jeremy Graboyes (jgraboyes@acus.gov) with questions and suggestions for future Bulletins.
