Title: Safeguarding Child Support and Expanded FPLS Information
Abstract: The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 made far-reaching amendments to title IV-D of the Social Security Act, which governs the child support enforcement program. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997, the Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997 and the Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998 further amended title IV-D. A significant result of this legislation is an expansion in the scope of information available to State IV-D child support enforcement agencies. The legislation has rendered obsolete or inconsistent several regulations at 45 CFR chapter III, Office of Child Support Enforcement, including the regulations on the Federal Parent Locator Service, the State Parent Locator Services, offset of Federal payments for purposes of collecting child support, and safeguarding of information. This regulation would update various sections in 45 CFR chapter III to reflect the statutory changes.
