Week ending Jan. 7: State Department publishes 8 notices

There were eight notices published by the State Department in week ending Jan. 7, according to the Federal Register.

The most recent notice, Delegation of the Authorities of the Secretary to Under Secretary John R. Bass, was submitted on January 6, 2023.

The State Department published four the week before, marking a 100 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.
