Executive Order 13719 of February 9, 2016
Establishment of the Federal Privacy Council
By the authority vested in me as President by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of
America, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Policy. The mission of the United States
Government is to serve its people. In order to
accomplish its mission, the Government lawfully
collects, maintains, and uses large amounts of
information about people in a wide range of contexts.
Protecting privacy in the collection and handling of
this information is fundamental to the successful
accomplishment of the Government's mission. The proper
functioning of Government requires the public's trust,
and to maintain that trust the Government must strive
to uphold the highest standards for collecting,
maintaining, and using personal data. Privacy has been
at the heart of our democracy from its inception, and
we need it now more than ever.
Executive departments and agencies (agencies) already
take seriously their mission to protect privacy and
have been working diligently to advance that mission
through existing interagency mechanisms. Today's
challenges, however, require that we find even more
effective and innovative ways to improve the
Government's efforts. Our efforts to meet these new
challenges and preserve our core value of privacy,
while delivering better and more effective Government
services for the American people, demand leadership and
enhanced coordination and collaboration among a diverse
group of stakeholders and experts.
Therefore, it shall be the policy of the United States
Government that agencies shall establish an interagency
support structure that: builds on existing interagency
efforts to protect privacy and provides expertise and
assistance to agencies; expands the skill and career
development opportunities of agency privacy
professionals; improves the management of agency
privacy programs by identifying and sharing lessons
learned and best practices; and promotes collaboration
between and among agency privacy professionals to
reduce unnecessary duplication of efforts and to ensure
the effective, efficient, and consistent implementation
of privacy policy Government-wide.
Sec. 2. Policy on Senior Agency Officials for Privacy.
Within 120 days of the date of this order, the Director
of the Office of Management and Budget (Director) shall
issue a revised policy on the role and designation of
the Senior Agency Officials for Privacy. The policy
shall provide guidance on the Senior Agency Official
for Privacy's responsibilities at their agencies,
required level of expertise, adequate level of
resources, and other matters as determined by the
Director. Agencies shall implement the requirements of
the policy within a reasonable time frame as prescribed
by the Director and consistent with applicable law.
Sec. 3. Responsibilities of Agency Heads. The head of
each agency, consistent with guidance to be issued by
the Director as required in section 2 of this order,
shall designate or re-designate a Senior Agency
Official for Privacy with the experience and skills
necessary to manage an agency-wide privacy program. In
addition, the head of each agency, to the extent
permitted by law and consistent with ongoing
activities, shall work with the Federal Privacy
Council, established in section 4 of this order.
Sec. 4. The Federal Privacy Council.
[[Page 7688]]
(a) Establishment. There is hereby established the
Federal Privacy Council (Privacy Council) as the
principal interagency forum to improve the Government
privacy practices of agencies and entities acting on
their behalf. The establishment of the Privacy Council
will help Senior Agency Officials for Privacy at
agencies better coordinate and collaborate, educate the
Federal workforce, and exchange best practices. The
activities of the Privacy Council will reinforce the
essential work that agency privacy officials undertake
every day to protect privacy.
(b) Membership. The Chair of the Privacy Council
shall be the Deputy Director for Management of the
Office of Management and Budget. The Chair may
designate a Vice Chair, establish working groups, and
assign responsibilities for operations of the Privacy
Council as he or she deems necessary. In addition to
the Chair, the Privacy Council shall be composed of the

President to be of value to the Commission. The Speaker
of the House of Representatives, the Minority Leader of
the House of Representatives, the Majority Leader of
the Senate, and the Minority Leader of the Senate are
each invited to recommend one individual for membership
on the Commission. No federally registered lobbyist or
person presently otherwise employed by the Federal
Government may serve on the Commission.
(b) The President shall designate one member of the
Commission to serve as the Chair and one member of the

privacy, ensuring public safety and economic and
national security, fostering discovery and development
of new technical solutions, and bolstering partnerships
between Federal, State, and local government and the
private sector in the development, promotion, and use
of cybersecurity technologies, policies, and best
practices. The Commission's recommendations should
address actions that can be taken over the next decade
to accomplish these goals.
(a) In developing its recommendations, the
Commission shall identify and study actions necessary
to further improve cybersecurity awareness, risk
management, and adoption of best practices throughout
the private sector and at all levels of government.
These areas of study may include methods to influence

technology and approach cybersecurity as consumers and
providers in the digital economy; demonstrate the
nature and severity of cybersecurity threats, the
importance of mitigation, and potential ways to manage
and reduce the economic impacts of cyber risk; improve
access to the knowledge needed to make informed cyber
risk management decisions related to privacy, economic
impact, and business continuity; and develop
partnerships with industry, civil society, and
international stakeholders. At a minimum, the
Commission shall develop recommendations regarding:

throughout the private sector and at all levels of
government, and in particular in the Federal Government
and by critical infrastructure owners and operators.
These areas of study may include cybersecurity
technologies and other advances that are responsive to
the rapidly evolving digital economy, and approaches to
accelerating the introduction and use of emerging
methods designed to enhance early detection,
mitigation, and management of cyber risk in the
security and privacy, and business and governance
sectors. At a minimum, the Commission shall develop
recommendations regarding:
(i) governance, procurement, and management processes for Federal civilian

Government; and
(D) strategies to overcome barriers that make it difficult for the
Federal Government to adopt and keep pace with industry best practices;

executive departments and agencies, to the extent
permitted by law and consistent with their ongoing
activities, to provide the Commission such information
and cooperation as it may require for purposes of
