DEPARTMENT OF STATE 

[Public Notice 6723] 

Defense Trade Advisory Group; Notice 

of Membership 

AGENCY: Department of State. 

ACTION: Notice. 

The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau 

of Political-Military Affairs’ Defense 

Trade Advisory Group (DTAG) is 

accepting membership applications for 

the 2010–2012 term. The Bureau of 

Political-Military Affairs is interested in 

applications from representatives of the 

United States defense industry, relevant 

trade and labor associations, academia, 

and foundation personnel. 

The DTAG was established as a 

continuing committee under the 

authority of 22 U.S.C. Sections 2651a 

and 2656 and the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 

(‘‘FACA’’). The purpose of the DTAG is 

to provide the Bureau of PoliticalMilitary Affairs with a formal channel 

for regular consultation and 

coordination with U.S. private sector 

defense exporters and defense trade 

specialists on issues involving U.S. 

laws, policies, and regulations for 

munitions exports. The DTAG advises 

the Bureau on its support for and 

regulation of defense trade to help 

ensure that impediments to legitimate 

exports are reduced while the foreign 

policy and national security interests of 

the United States continue to be 

protected and advanced in accordance 

with the Arms Export Control Act 

(AECA), as amended. Major topics 

addressed by the DTAG include (a) 

Policy issues on commercial defense 

trade and technology transfer; (b) 

regulatory and licensing procedures 

applicable to defense articles, services, 

and technical data; (c) technical issues 

involving the U.S. Munitions List 

(USML); and (d) questions relating to 

actions designed to carry out the AECA 

and International Traffic in Arms 

Regulations (ITAR). 

Members are appointed by the 

Assistant Secretary of State for PoliticalMilitary Affairs as representatives of 

their organizations, companies, or 

sectors, on the basis of substantive and 

technical expertise and qualifications. 

The 2010–2012 DTAG will be expected 

to represent the views of their 

organizations, being selected from a 

representative cross-section of subject 

matter experts from the United States 

defense industry, relevant trade and 

labor associations, academia, and 

foundation personnel. All DTAG 

members shall be aware of the 

Department of State’s mandate that arms 

transfers must further U.S. national 

security and foreign policy interests. 

DTAG members also shall be versed in 

the complexity of commercial defense 

trade and industrial competitiveness, 

and all members must be able to advise 

the Bureau on these matters. 

DTAG members’ responsibilities 

include: 

• Service for a consecutive two-year 

term which may be renewed or 

terminated at the discretion of the 

Assistant Secretary of State for PoliticalMilitary Affairs (membership shall 

automatically terminate for members 

who fail to attend two consecutive 

DTAG plenary meetings). 

• Making recommendations in 

accordance with the DTAG Charter and 

the FACA. 

• Making policy and technical 

recommendations within the scope of 

the U.S. commercial export control 

regime as mandated in the AECA, the 

ITAR, and appropriate directives. 

Please note that DTAG members may 

not be reimbursed by the Department of 

State or any other USG agency for travel, 

per diem, and other expenses incurred 

in connection with their duties as DTAG 

members. 

How to apply: Applications in 

response to this notice must contain the 

following information: (1) Name of
