        <RULE_TITLE>Federal Claims Collection Standards</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Federal Claims Collection Standards prescribe basic standards for Federal agencies for collection of non-tax claims. The standards were originally published in 1984 jointly by the Department of Justice and the General Accounting Office. The Department of the Treasury has been added as a co-signor by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (Act). This revision is being made to simplify the language of the original standards, and to incorporate changes made by the Act. The language mirrors the statutory language concerning such topics as disbursing official offset, cross-servicing of debts, interest and penalties on claims, and contracts for collection services.]]></ABSTRACT>
