Homeland Security Department discusses Information Collection Request to Office of Management and Budget; OMB Control Number: 1625-0028 on Nov. 15

The US Homeland Security Department published a two page notice on Nov. 15, according to the U.S. Government Publishing Office.

The notice is focused on Information Collection Request to Office of Management and Budget; OMB Control Number: 1625-0028.

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.
