SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Committee on Administration and Management

    The Committee on Administration and Management will meet to 
consider issues arising when agencies use ``incorporation by 
reference'' in regulations; i.e., when an agency regulation 
incorporates by reference material available elsewhere. Among other 
things, the committee will discuss procedural and drafting issues that 
arise when agencies use incorporation by reference, challenges agencies 
face in updating such references, and ways to ensure the reasonable 
availability of incorporated materials, which may be subject to 
copyright.
    Date: Friday, October 28, 2011, from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
    Designated Federal Officer: Scott Rafferty.

Committee on Collaborative Governance

    The Committee on Collaborative Governance will consider 
recommending improvements to the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) 
and the implementation of the Act. Potential issues for discussion 
include the chartering requirements for advisory committees; improving 
access to committee meetings and materials; virtual committee meetings; 
and other improvements that might reduce the burdens imposed by FACA or 
improve the transparency of FACA committees.
    The Committee on Collaborative Governance may also discuss a 
project regarding the use of third-party certification in government 
inspections.
    Date: Tuesday, October 18, 2011, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
    Designated Federal Officer: David Pritzker.

Committee on Judicial Review

    The Committee on Judicial Review will discuss potential changes to 
28 U.S.C. 1500, which regulates the jurisdiction of the Court of 
Federal Claims (CFC). The statute currently deprives the CFC of 
jurisdiction over a claim if the plaintiff has a claim based on the 
same facts pending in another court. The committee will consider 
whether this statute should be repealed or revised.
    The committee may also consider the Congressional Review Act and 
agency practices under the Act.
    Date: Thursday, October 27, 2011, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
    Designated Federal Officer: Reeve Bull.

Committee on Regulation

    The Committee on Regulation will meet to consider a project 
concerning international regulatory cooperation. This project will 
examine how the Conference might update its Recommendation 91-1, 
``Federal Agency Cooperation with Foreign Government Regulators,'' in 
light of developments in United States government structure, trade 
agreements, and technology since the recommendation was adopted 20 
years ago.
    Date: Tuesday, October 25, 2011, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
    Designated Federal Officer: Reeve Bull.

    Dated: September 28, 2011.
Jonathan R. Siegel,
Director of Research and Policy.
