Department of Commerce Open Government Plan

On August 7, 2024, the U.S. Department of Commerce's Office of Privacy and Open Government issued a request for public comments (RFC) on improvements to the presentation of the Department's eighth Open Government Plan. That request sought public input on how to improve upon the organization, scope, form, and format of the Department's seventh Open Government Plan document, how to enhance readability and reach a broader audience, and how best to convey in the document how the Department's eighth Open Government Plan incorporates themes from the fifth U.S. Open Government National Action Plan that was issued on December 28, 2022. The comment period for the Open Government Plan closed on September 6, 2024. Unfortunately, the RFC was not available for public comments via the Federal eRulemaking Portal at https:// www.regulations.gov/. Accordingly, the Department hereby reopens the comment period for an additional 60 days.
