SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Contractors and Consultants Records

    The Contractors and Consultant records system contains information 
about individuals who have contracted with the CFTC to provide various 
supplies and services. Collection of this information is necessary to 
accurately document, award, and manage procurement actions, including 
ensuring that contractors and consultants are compensated for goods 
delivered or services performed and to track and manage the fulfillment 
of such contractual obligations.

II. The Privacy Act

    Under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, a ``system of 
records'' is

[[Page 5998]]

defined as any group of records under the control of a federal 
government agency from which information about individuals is retrieved 
by name or other personal identifier. The Privacy Act establishes the 
means by which government agencies must collect, maintain, and use 
personally identifiable information associated with an individual in a 
government system of records.
    Each government agency is required to publish a notice in the 
Federal Register of a system of records in which the agency identifies 
and describes each system of records it maintains, the reasons why the 
agency uses the personally identifying information therein, the routine 
uses for which the agency will disclose such information outside the 
agency, and how individuals may exercise their rights under the Privacy 
Act to determine if the system contains information about them.
