The purpose of the Committee is to

ongoing assessment of the effectiveness 

of the rating schedule, and give advice 

on the most appropriate means of 

responding to the needs of Veterans 

relating to disability compensation. 

The Committee will receive briefings

Veterans with service-connected 

disabilities and other VA benefits 

programs. Time will be allocated for
