Abstract/Summary

The Commission on Appointments is the government agency which oversees the confirmation of Presidential appointees. It is producing its first ever annual report. The report includes an introduction to its origins, structure and processes as well as a review of its activities and accomplishments for the past year. The annual report covers the Commission's Philosophical Origin Messages from the Commission's officers Statement of Policy A Brief History a Calendar and summary for 1998 the composition of its Membership its Committee System the confirmed Appointments for 1998 a report from its Secretariat Centennial Events Budget Appropriations and a Directory.

In the past the Commission prepared an informal annual report consisting of individual, nonstandard reports from its various services attached to a list of confirmed appointments. This somewhat rag-tag compilation was then submitted to various government offices, such as the Office of the President, the Commission on Audit, the Department of Budget and Management, the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Defense and so on. The Commission saw the need to improve its annual report in order to emphasize the prestige and relevance of its work to various publics. Coupled with a rash of much publicized controversies that involved the Commission, its officers wanted to produce a publication that would convey its thrust towards transparency and accountability. The annual report is as much a medium for information dissemination as it is a public relations project. The Commission wanted to establish a position comparable to that of the better known government offices and departments, which produced professional annual reports, hence the Commission's attempt at developing and uprgrading its own version.
