    Privacy impact assessments are paperwork required by the E-Gov Act to reveal the privacy consequences of IT systems or projects. Generally a good thing. I haven't been following whether there are changes to the PIA process or requirements in the E-Gov reauthorization bill.

    I was amused to see a private entity (Jerry) scoop the HSGAC on releasing audio of its hearings. Pledges from government officials notwithstanding, I think that will be common. After all, transparency doesn't do much to serve the interests of government institutions or their employees.

    HSGAC staff has been good enough to correct the record on availability of hearings.

    Live hearings are available at http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/index.cfm?Fuseaction=Hearings.Live.

    The video of this morning's hearing is at http://www.hsgac.senate.gov/index.cfm?Fuseaction=Hearings.Detail&HearingID;=513.

    And archived versions of hearings are placed on the HSGAC site as soon as they’re available.

    (Thanks, Jerry, for makin' me look like a jerk!)

    Jim, You don't need any help in that department. I've updated the post to correct my error. -JB
