The Off‌ice of Special Counsel investigates allegations of certain activities prohibited

by civil service laws, rules, or regulations and litigates before the Merit Systems

Protection Board.

The Off‌ice of Special Counsel (OSC)

was established on January 1, 1979, by

Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1978 (5

U.S.C. app.). The Civil Service Reform

Act of 1978 (5 U.S.C. 1101 note),

which became effective on January

11, 1979, enlarged its functions and

powers. Pursuant to provisions of the

Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989

(5 U.S.C. 1211 et seq.), OSC functions

as an independent investigative and

prosecutorial agency within the executive
