Government Executive: Federal agencies’ budget planners will spend their last months under President Obama preparing for their transition to the next administration rather than crafting funding requests, the president’s top budget official directed in a memorandum last week.
OMB Director Shaun Donovan instructed agencies to prepare a “complete current services baseline” rather than the standard formal budget request. Agencies will not engage in the normal director’s review or “passback processes” with OMB this September, as is typical in non-presidential election years. They will also hold off on issuing their fiscal 2018 performance plans.
