SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Consumer Advisory Council was

established in 1976 at the direction of

the Congress to advise the Federal

Reserve Board on the exercise of its

duties under the Consumer Credit

Protection Act and on other consumerrelated matters. The Council by law

represents the interests both of

consumers and of the financial services

industry (15 USC 1691(b)). Under the

Rules of Organization and Procedure of

the Consumer Advisory Council (12

CFR 267.3), members serve three-year

terms that are staggered to provide the

Council with continuity. New members

will be selected for terms beginning

January 1, 1999, to replace members

whose terms expire in December 1998;

the Board expects to announce its

appointment of new members by yearend. Nomination letters should include

information about past and present

positions held by the nominee; a

description of special knowledge,

interests or experience related to

community reinvestment, consumer

credit, or other consumer financial

services; and the current address and

telephone number of both the nominee

and the nominator. Individuals may

nominate themselves.

The Board is interested in candidates

who have some familiarity with

consumer financial services or

community reinvestment, and who are

willing to express their viewpoints.

Candidates do not have to be experts on

all levels of consumer financial services

or community reinvestment, but they

should possess some basic knowledge of

the area. They must be able and willing

to make the necessary time commitment

to prepare for and attend meetings three

times a year (usually for two days,

including committee meetings), held at

the Board Offices in Washington, D.C.

The Board pays travel expenses, lodging

and a nominal honorarium. In making

the appointments, the Board will seek to

complement the background of

continuing Council members in terms of

affiliation and geographic

representation, and to ensure the

representation of women and minority

groups. The Board may consider prior

years’ nominees and does not limit

consideration to individuals nominated

by the public when making its selection.
