Justice Department publishes 3 notices in week ending August 22

There were three notices published by the Justice Department in week ending August 22, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Meeting of the Public Safety Officer Medal of Valor Review Board, was submitted on August 20, 2021.

The Justice Department published two the week before, marking a 50.0 percent increase.

The Department is one of the oldest in the US, focused primarily on law enforcement and the federal prison system. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, detailed wasteful expenses such as $16 muffins at conferences and board meetings.

Notices are required documents detailing rules and regulations being proposed by each federal department. This allows the public to see what issues legislators and federal departments are focusing on.

Any person or organization can comment on the proposed rules. Departments and agencies must then address “significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made,” the Federal Register says.
