Title: QUESTIONNAIRE ON DEFENSE ACQUISITION REGULATORY (DAR)
Type of Information Collection: New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 04/05/1984
	Date Received in OIRA: 03/02/1984
Terms of Clearance: Approval is contingent upon moving question 8 to question 5 and revising it to read: The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) System, which became effective on April 1, 1984, has broadened the role of the DAR Council. I~n addition to actions relating solely to DOD, NASA has been added to the DAR Council for FAR matters and additional responsibilities have been added for management of the FAR with government-wide impact. The DAR Council will assume a major role in the maintenance of the FAR. It is expected that the DOD FAR Supplement will shrink as more material is folded into the FAR. Ideally, there should eventually be no need for a DOD Supplement provided that allowance is made for policies and internal management procedures peculiar to the military departments. Given this scenario, what changes should be made, if any, to DAR Council evolve into or be integrated with a single government-wide FAR Council? Assuming the feasbility of a single FAR Council, what proportion of representation should DOD have?
