Plans for a DOJ Privacy Officer
The House Judiciary Committee recently passed a Justice Department reauthorization bill that includes language for the establishment of a new statutory privacy officer. If the bill becomes law the Department of Justice would become the second federal agency to require a statory privacy officer. There are other privacy officers serving in the federal government, but only one, Nuala O'Connor Kelly, with the Department of Homeland Security is required by federal law.
