Tribal Child Support Enforcement Program Proposed Rule
Summary
The Department of Health and Human Services, through the Office of Child Support Enforcement, has published a proposed rule concerning the Tribal Child Support Enforcement Program. This proposal outlines new regulations for tribal programs, with public consultations scheduled in June and July 2008.
What changed

The purpose of these consultations is to provide an overview of the proposed regulation and to elicit public comment. Persons who attend the consultations may make oral presentations and/or provide written comments for the record at the consultation. We strongly encourage persons who make oral presentations at the consultations to submit written comments in support of their presentations.
Public Participation: Individuals who wish to make an oral presentation on these proposed rules at any of the meetings are welcome to do so. Attendees must register at the meeting site and identifying information about prospective presenters will be recorded, such as name, organization (if any), address, and telephone number, so that presenters can be accurately identified and properly introduced at the consultations. Persons who are registered will make their presentations first; then, as time allows, persons who did not register will make their presentations. Presentations must be about the proposed rule, should be specific, and should include specific recommendations for changes where appropriate. In fairness to other participants, presentations should be concise and will be limited to a maximum of 10 minutes each. The order of persons making such presentations will be the order in which the requests are received.
At the meetings, OCSE cannot address participants' concerns regarding the proposed rules, or respond to questions about the proposed rules other than questions asking for clarification. It is expected that individuals attending these meetings will have read the NPRM. OCSE will consider comments and recommendations provided at the consultations, and written comments and recommendations submitted as we prepare the final version of these regulations.
Minutes of the public meeting will be available for public inspection and copying at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) 14 days after the conclusion of the consultations.
