Sec. 731.102  Implementation.

    (a) An investigation conducted for the purpose of determining 
suitability under this part may not be used for any other purpose except 
as provided in a Privacy Act system of records notice published by the 
agency conducting the investigation.
    (b) Under OMB Circular No. A-130 Revised, issued February 8, 1996, 
the Director of OPM is to establish policies for Federal personnel 
associated with the design, operation, or use of Federal automated 
information systems. Agencies are to implement and maintain a program to 
ensure that adequate protection is provided for all automated 
information systems. Agency programs should be consistent with 
government-wide policies and procedures issued by OPM. The Computer 
Security Act of 1987 (Public Law 100-235) provides additional 
requirements for Federal automated information systems.
    (c) Policies, procedures, criteria, and guidance for the 
implementation of this part shall be set forth in OPM issuances. OPM may 
revoke an agency's delegation to adjudicate suitability under this part 
if an agency fails to conform to OPM issuances.
