Advisory Committee Information Hotline

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that we 
have revised the Advisory Committee Information Hotline (the hotline). 
The hotline provides the public with access to the most current 
information available on FDA advisory committee meetings. This notice 
supersedes all previously published announcements of FDA's Advisory 
Committee Information Hotline.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michael F. Ortwerth, Director, 
Advisory Committee Oversight and Management Staff (HF-4), Food and Drug 
Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-1220.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Advisory Committee Information Hotline 
can be accessed by dialing 1-800-741-8138 or 301-443-0572. The advisory 
committee meeting information and information updates can also be 
accessed via FDA's Advisory Committee Internet site at http://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm.
    Each advisory committee is assigned a 10-digit number. This 10-
digit number will appear in each individual notice of meeting. The 
public can obtain information about a particular advisory committee 
meeting by using the committee's 10-digit number. Information on the 
hotline is preliminary and may change before a meeting is actually 
held. The hotline will be updated when such changes are made. The 
following is a list of each advisory committee's 10-digit number to be 
used when accessing the hotline. The list has been updated to add the 
newly established advisory committee in the Center for Tobacco called 
the Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee.

upcoming advisory committee meetings, guidance for making an oral 
presentation during the open public hearing portion of a meeting, and 
procedures on obtaining copies of transcripts of advisory committee 
meetings. Because the hotline will communicate the most current 
information available about any particular advisory committee meeting, 
this system will provide interested parties with timely and equal 
access to such information. The hotline should
