# §550.1105. Review and approval of agency regulations.

- (a) **Initial OPM review of agency regulations.**
  - (1) Creditor agencies must submit regulations to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) for review in accordance with [5 U.S.C. 5514](/usc/5/5514.md) and this subpart prior to publication of final regulations or prior to implementation, if intragency collection procedures are not published. Submissions must be for agency-wide and/or Government-wide collections.
  - (2) Creditor agency regulations must contain all provisions specified in [§ 550.1104](/cfr/5/550.1104.md). If agency regulations are incomplete, OPM will return them with information as to what must be done to obtain approval.
- (b) **Proposed changes in salary offset regulations.** If a creditor agency proposes significant changes in the regulations covering provisions specified in [§ 550.1104](/cfr/5/550.1104.md), the proposed revisions must be submitted to OPM for review and approval prior to implementation.
- (c) **Supplemental regulations.** When a creditor agency has issued approved regulations covering the provisions specified in [§ 550.1104](/cfr/5/550.1104.md), the agency may issue any supplemental regulations or instructions, consistent with its approved regulations, which are necessary for solely internal operations, without prior OPM approval.
