The Department of Defense's Office of the General Counsel is requesting public feedback on a proposed information collection related to conflicts of interest for members of certain defense advisory committees. This proposal, part of the compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, seeks comments on the necessity and practicality of the information being collected, and ways to improve it while minimizing the burden on respondents. The form, called SD Form 830, aims to identify potential conflicts of interest among committee members. The public has until February 10, 2025, to submit comments on the proposal.
