Applicability of Control of Paperwork Amendments of 1978 to Certain Activities of the Civil Rights Division
Control of Paperwork Amendments of 1978, which impose restrictions on federal agencies' collection of data from educational institutions, do not apply to collection of data by the Department of Justice in connection with school desegregation litigation. The OLC does not provide release dates for its opinions, so the release date listed is the date on which the opinion was authored.
