The new IRS Whistleblower Office’s Rewards Program <\/a>that we have followed closely on this whistleblower lawyer blog <\/a>made further progress this week. The IRS gave notice on January 9 that it intends to create a proposed new system of records–“Whistleblower Office Records.” <\/p>\n

The purpose is to allow the new IRS Whistleblower Office to administer the IRS Whistleblower program more effectively, in contrast to the “old,” decentralized procedures that the IRS used before Congress authorized the new IRS Whistleblower Rewards <\/a>in December 2006.<\/p>\n

The new Whistleblower Office Records will contain records pertaining to whistleblower award applications that were filed before or after the new Whistleblower Office was created in early 2007. Based on my earliest discussions with IRS Whistleblower Office Director Stephen Whitlock<\/a>, it is an essential step to bring all whistleblower submissions to the same place so that the Whistleblower Office can administer the program effectively.<\/p>\n

We congratulate Mr. Whitlock and the Whistleblower Office on their continued efforts and progress to make the Whistleblower Program as effective as it can be.<\/p>\n

The Notice is “Whistleblower Office Records — Treasury\/IRS 42.005,” 73 F.R. 1667-1669. It is reprinted below:
