DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

National Institutes of Health; Statement of Organizations, 
Functions and Delegations of Authority

    Part H, Chapter HN (National Institutes of Health) of the Statement 
of Organization, Functions and Delegations of Authority of the 
Department of Health and Human Services (40 FR 22859, May 27, 1975, as 
amended most recently at 60 FR 18607, April 12, 1995), is amended to 
reflect the establishment of the Office of Information Systems 
Management (OISM) within the National Center for Human Genome Research 
(NCHGR). The establishment of the OISM will streamline organization 
within the NCHGR by bringing together all NCHGR staff with 
responsibility for information systems management under one umbrella 
organization and allow the Center to operate more effectively by making 
the most efficient use of manpower and resources.
    Section HN-B, Organization and Functions is amended as follows: 

[[Page 41083]]

    Under the heading National Center for Human Genome Research (HN4), 
add the title and functional statement for the OISM as follows:
    Office of Information Systems Management (HN416): (1) Provides 
technical leadership and advice to all levels of Center management in 
order to obtain maximum utilization of current ADP resources and 
advancements in the field of information systems technology and 
telecommunications; (2) determines requirements, designs, implements 
and coordinates the Center's management information systems which 
collect, maintain, and report various types of administrative 
information; (3) advises the NCHGR Director, Deputy Director and 
Executive Officer, and other Center staff on the technological and 
policy impact and implications of developments in information systems 
and related fields within and outside the government; (4) coordinates 
staff activities with those of contractors, other components of NIH, 
and other Federal and non-Federal data processing agencies; (5) 
provides user support, including training, in LAN/information systems 
capabilities, programs and procedures.
    Under the heading Office of Policy Coordination (HN415), delete 
``(6) plans and coordinates computer network operations'', since these 
activities have been incorporated into the functional statement for the 
OISM.
    Under the heading Office of Information Management (HN45E), delete 
the title and functional statement in their entirety, since these 
activities have been incorporated into the Office of Information 
Systems Management.

    Dated: July 28, 1995.
Ruth L. Kirschstein,
Deputy Director, NIH.
