Week ending Oct. 29: State Department publishes 7 notices

There were seven notices published by the State Department in week ending Oct. 29, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Determination Under Section 610 of the Foreign Assistance Act (FAA) of 1961 To Provide Assistance for International Energy and Climate Security Objectives and for Assistance for the Pacific Islands, was submitted on October 28, 2022.

The State Department published five the week before, marking a 40 percent increase.

The State Department is responsibly for international relations with a budget of more than $50 billion. Tenure at the State Dept. is increasingly tenuous and it's seen as an extension of the President's will, ambitions and flaws.

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.
