Public notices: Homeland Security Department publishes 63 in May

There were 63 notices published by the Homeland Security Department in May, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Notice of Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Cybersecurity Advisory Committee Meeting, was submitted on May 27, 2022.

The Homeland Security Department published 77 the month before, marking an 18.2 percent decrease for the current month.

The Department was built out of more than 20 agencies in 2002. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lower taxes and boosting federal efficiency, argued the Department is burdened with "unneeded bureaucracy" which could be handled by other departments or standalone operations.

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.
