- The Congressional Accountability Act (CAA) provides that if the OCWR Board of Directors has not issued a regulation on a matter for which a regulation is required to be issued, the hearing officer, Board, or court, as the case may be, shall apply, to the extent necessary and appropriate, the most relevant substantive executive agency regulation promulgated to implement the statutory provision at issue in the proceeding. 2 U.S.C. § 1411. The Board has determined that it will not issue its own FFCRA regulations. In most, if not all, FFCRA matters arising under the CAA, the Secretary of Labor’s temporary regulations that are applicable to the legislative branch and consistent with the statute will probably be the most relevant substantive executive agency regulations (https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/files/WHD/Pandemic/FFCRA.pdf). The OCWR’s FFCRA Q&A provides additional guidance on how the statute and regulations are being interpreted by the OCWR and on the appropriate methods of seeking redress for violations of the FFCRA under the CAA (https://www.ocwr.gov/sites/default/files/FFCRA%20Q%26A.pdf).
