of the meetings, when scheduled, and 

any cancellations or changes in the 

meetings as they occur. 

As an additional procedure along 

with the computerization of this information, the Office of the Senate Daily 

Digest will prepare this information for 

printing in the Extensions of Remarks 

section of the CONGRESSIONAL RECORD
