annual rate of $155,400, for each day 

(including travel time) during which 

such member is engaged in the 

performance of the duties of the 

Commission. All members of the 

Commission who are officers or 

employees of the United States shall 

serve without compensation in addition 

to that received for their services as 

officers or employees of the United 

States. 

The members of the Commission shall 

be allowed travel expenses, including 

per diem in lieu of subsistence, at rates 

authorized for employees of agencies 

under subchapter I of chapter 57 of title 

5 United States Code, while away from 

their homes or regular places of 

business in the performance of services 

for the Commission. 

The DoD, when necessary and 

consistent with the Commission’s 

mission and DoD policies and 

procedures, may establish 

subcommittees, task forces, or working 

groups to support the Commission. 

Establishment of subcommittees will be 

based upon a written determination, to 

include terms of reference, by the 

Secretary of Defense, the Deputy 

Secretary of Defense, or the DCMO, as 

the DoD sponsor. 

Such subcommittees shall not work 

independently of the Commission and 

shall report all of their 

recommendations and advice solely to 

the Commission for full and open 

deliberation and discussion. 

Subcommittees, task forces, or working 

groups have no authority to make 

decisions and recommendations, 

verbally or in writing, on behalf of the 

Commission. No subcommittee or its 

members can update or report, verbally 

or in writing, on behalf of the 

Commission, directly to the DoD or to 

any Federal officer or employee. 

All subcommittee members shall be 

appointed by the Secretary of Defense or 

the Deputy Secretary of Defense 

according to governing DoD policies and 

procedures, even if the member in 

question is already a member of the 

Commission. Subcommittee members, 

with the approval of the Secretary of 

Defense, may serve a term of service for 

the life of the subcommittee. 

Subcommittee members, if not fulltime or part-time Federal officers or 

employees, shall be appointed as 

experts or consultants pursuant to 5 

U.S.C. § 3109 to serve as SGE members. 

Subcommittee members who are fulltime or permanent part-time Federal

serve as RGE members. 

Each subcommittee member is 

appointed to provide advice to the 

government on the basis of his or her 

best judgment without representing any 

particular point of view and in a manner 

that is free from conflict of interest. 

Subcommittee members may be 

compensated, and shall be allowed 

travel expenses, in the same manner as 

Commission members. 

All subcommittees operate under the 

provisions of the FACA, the Sunshine 

Act, governing Federal statutes and 

regulations, and established DoD 

policies and procedures. 

The Commission’s Designated Federal 

Officer (DFO), pursuant to DoD policy, 

shall be a full-time or permanent parttime DoD employee appointed in 

accordance with governing DoD policies 

and procedures. 

The Commission’s DFO is required to 

be in attendance at all meetings of the 

Commission and any of its 

subcommittees for the entire duration of 

each and every meeting. However, in 

the absence of the Commission’s DFO, 

a properly approved Alternate DFO, 

duly appointed to the Commission 

according to established DoD policies 

and procedures, shall attend the entire 

duration of the Commission or any 

subcommittee meeting. 

The DFO, or the Alternate DFO, shall 

call all meetings of the Commission and 

its subcommittees; prepare and approve 

all meeting agendas; and adjourn any 

meeting when the DFO, or the Alternate 

DFO, determines adjournment to be in 

the public interest or required by 

governing regulations or DoD policies 

and procedures. 

Pursuant to 41 CFR 102–3.105(j) and 

102–3.140, the public or interested 

organizations may submit written 

statements to National Commission on 

the Future of the Army membership 

about the Commission’s mission and 

functions. Written statements may be 

submitted at any time or in response to 

the stated agenda of planned meeting of 

the National Commission on the Future 

of the Army. 

All written statements shall be 

submitted to the DFO for the National 

Commission on the Future of the Army, 

and this individual will ensure that the 

written statements are provided to the 

membership for their consideration. 

Contact information for the National 

Commission on the Future of the Army 

DFO can be obtained from the GSA’s 

FACA Database—http://

www.facadatabase.gov/. 

The DFO, pursuant to 41 CFR 102– 

3.150, will announce planned meetings 

of the National Commission on the 

Future of the Army. The DFO, at that 

time, may provide additional guidance 

on the submission of written statements 

that are in response to the stated agenda 

for the planned meeting in question.
