President for Science and Technology,

November 30, 2012 from 9:00 a.m. to 

12:30 p.m. 

Open Portion of Meeting: During this 

open meeting, PCAST is tentatively

may hold a closed meeting of 

approximately one hour with the 

President on November 30, 2012, which 

must take place in the White House for 

the President’s scheduling convenience 

and to maintain Secret Service 

protection. This meeting will be closed 

to the public because such portion of

of national defense or foreign policy

register than there is space available on 

the agenda, PCAST will randomly select

applied. Those not selected to present 

oral comments may always file written 

comments with the committee. Speakers 

are requested to bring at least 25 copies
