The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy has set Dec 17, 2011 as the deadline for departments and agencies to submit for OSTP review their draft final policies to protect scientific integrity.

OSTP has been providing specific feedback to departments and agencies on their draft policies and will continue to do so. I am also encouraging all departments and agencies that have not already made drafts of their policies available for public comment to post publicly either the versions they submit to OSTP in December or the versions that result from OSTP’s feedback on those drafts. Our experience with agencies that have already done so has been that draft policies tend to improve considerably as a result of public input.
