Notice of renewal and name change.

# SUMMARY:

In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (Pub. L. 92-463; 5 U.S.C. App. 2), with the concurrence of the General Services Administration, the Secretary of the Treasury has determined that renewal of the Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee of The Bond Market Association (the “Committee”) is necessary and in the public interest in connection with the performance of duties imposed on the Department of the Treasury by law.

Effective November 1, 2006, the name of the Bond Market Association was changed to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association following the merger of the Securities Industry Association and the Bond Market Association. Hence, the name of the Committee has been changed to reflect this merger. The new name is the Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association.
