On February 9, 2016, President Obama issued an executive order to establish a Federal Privacy
Council as the "principal interagency forum" for
improving the federal government's privacy practices. The
Privacy Council will be led by a deputy director of the Office of
Management and Budget ("OMB") and include representatives
from major departments and agencies of the federal government.
Among other functions, the Privacy Council is tasked with making
recommendations to OMB regarding government privacy policies,
enabling cross-agency information sharing, and addressing
development needs of the government's privacy
professionals.
