Privacy Act of 1974 Update

The Department of State has published a notice in the Federal Register announcing the rescission of the External Research Records system, known as State-10. This system was used to manage the consultant program and other external research-related activities. The information in this system was used to prepare reports on work performed by consultants and experts, as well as to prepare periodic summaries of financial commitments for approved projects.

Impact on Consultants and Experts

The rescission of the External Research Records system should not directly affect consultants and experts participating in external research programs. However, they should be aware of the changes to the system for recording and storing their personal data.
