A. Definitions

Comment: The respondent recommended inclusion of the definition of "Executive and Senior Management," as defined in the FAR clause 52.222-35, Equal Opportunity for Veterans, in the definitions section of FAR subpart 22.13.

Response: The Councils have added the definition to FAR 22.1301.

Comment: The respondent recommended a change to the definition of the term "other protected veteran."

Response: The FAR rule is implementing the DOL rule and does not have the latitude to expand the meaning of the DOL definition. (See the August 8, 2007, final rule of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, Department of Labor, 60-300.2 (p), 72 FR 44393.)
