SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Summaries for each FAR rule follow. For the actual revisions and/or amendments made by these FAR rules, refer to the specific item numbers and subjects set forth in the documents following these item summaries. FAC 2024-07 amends the FAR as follows:

Item I-Reference to Penalty Threshold (FAR Case 2023-005)

This final rule amends the FAR to align the penalties language in the FAR lobbying provision at FAR 52.203-11 with the equivalent penalties language in the FAR lobbying clause at FAR 52.203-12. FAR 52.203-11(e) cites to the underlying authority at 31 U.S.C. 1352 and specifies that an imposition of a civil penalty does not prevent the Government from seeking any other remedy that may be applicable.

Item II-Technical Amendments

Administrative changes are made at FAR 4.1202, 19.102, and 19.309.

Director, Office of Government-Wide Acquisition Policy, Office of Acquisition Policy, Office of Government-Wide Policy.
