SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise 
Oversight (OFHEO) is charged by Congress, as established in Title XIII 
of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992, known as the 
Federal Housing Enterprises Financial Safety and Soundness Act of 1992, 
with the mandate of overseeing the Federal National Mortgage 
Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, Fannie Mae 
and Freddie Mac (Enterprises).
    Three years ago, OFHEO adopted a Strategic Plan covering FY 2003-
2008. Section 306 of the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 
(GPRA), 31 U.S.C. 1115 et seq., requires that agencies update and 
revise their Strategic Plans every three years. OFHEO is currently 
drafting a new plan for FY 2006-2011 that will describe the agency's 
mission, strategic goals and objectives, and strategies to achieve 
them. This plan will provide a framework for the years ahead. OFHEO 
uses its Strategic Plan to guide each year's performance goals, which 
are described in OFHEO's Annual Performance Budgets. They may be viewed 
on the OFHEO Web site at http://www.ofheo.gov in the ``News Center & 
FOIA'' section, ``Reports'' section.
    In today's notice, OFHEO is soliciting the views and suggestions 
that may be considered in the development of its revised plan. 
Additionally, OFHEO will publish a draft plan on the OFHEO Web site in 
late summer and will continue to encourage comments. OFHEO will then 
submit its Strategic Plan to the President and the Congress, pursuant 
to the statutory requirements, and make it available to the public on 
the OFHEO Web site.
