Congressionally Mandated Reports: OMB/GPO Guidance

AGENCY: U.S. Government Publishing Office.

ACTION: Notice of OMB/GPO guidance on congressionally mandated reports.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Federal agencies are now required by law to submit 
congressionally mandated reports to GPO by the end of the year. On June 
21, 2023, GPO and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released a 
memo providing guidance to Federal agencies: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/M-23-17-Access-to-Congressionally-Mandated-Reports-Act-Implementation-Guidance.pdf. The 
memo outlines instructions and deadlines for compliance with this 
mandate, including information about reports that are exempt from 
submission to GPO. The reports will be published and made available to 
the public on GPO's online system, GovInfo: https://www.govinfo.gov. 
Under this new requirement, agencies will also continue to submit 
printed, signed copies of mandated reports to Congressional committees 
and subcommittees. When fully deployed, this will be the first time 
congressionally mandated reports will be accessible to the public in 
one place. Beginning October 1, 2023, Federal agencies will designate a 
point of contact for report submission and register for an account for 
the upcoming GPO Submission Portal. All resources related to 
congressionally mandated reports for Federal agencies can be found at: 
https://www.gpo.gov/congressionally-mandated-reports. For questions, 
please use askGPO: https://ask.gpo.gov/. Select the Federal Agency 
customer type, and the Other inquiry category.
