        <RULE_TITLE>Process for Electing State Employment Statistics Agency Representatives for Consultations With Department of Labor</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[This interim final rule establishes a process for the election of State representatives to participate in formal consultations with the Department of Labor relating to the development of an annual employment statistics plan and to address other employment statistics issues. Section 15(d)(2) of the Wagner-Peyser Act, as recently amended by section 309 of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998, requires the Secretary to establish a process for the election of representatives from each of the 10 Federal regions of the Department. This provision requires that the representatives be elected by and from the directors of the State employment statistics agencies designed to carry at employment statistics responsibilities under section 15 of the Wagner-Peyser Act. The interim final rule addresses the election cycles, the tenure of representatives, the process for the distribution of ballots, tie-breaking procedures, methods of transmitting ballots and votes, and the filling of vacancies.]]></ABSTRACT>
