SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

MRAC was established to conduct 

public meetings, advise, and submit 

reports and recommendations to the 

Commission on matters of public 

concern to clearinghouses, exchanges, 

swap execution facilities, swap data 

repositories, intermediaries, market 

makers, service providers, end-users 

(e.g., consumers) and the Commission 

regarding (1) systemic issues that 

threaten the stability of the derivatives 

markets and other related financial 

markets, and (2) the impact and 

implications of the evolving market 

structure of the derivatives markets and 

other related financial markets. The 

duties of the MRAC are solely advisory 

and include advising the Commission 

with respect to the effects that 

developments in the structure of the 

derivatives markets have on the 

systemic issues that impact the stability 

of the derivatives markets and other 

financial markets. The MRAC also 

makes recommendations to the 

Commission on how to improve market 

structure and mitigate risk to support 

the Commission’s mission of ensuring 

the integrity of the derivatives markets 

and monitoring and managing systemic 

risk. Determinations of actions to be 

taken and policy to be expressed with 

respect to the reports or 

recommendations of the MRAC are 

made solely by the Commission. 

MRAC members generally serve as 

representatives and provide advice 

reflecting the views of organizations and 

entities that constitute the structure of 

the derivatives and financial markets. 

The MRAC may also include regular 

government employees when doing so 

furthers purposes of the MRAC. 

Historically, the MRAC has had 

approximately 30 members with the 

following types of entities with interests 

in the derivatives markets and systemic 

risk being represented: (i) Exchanges, 

(ii) clearinghouses, (iii) swap execution 

facilities, (iv) swap data repositories, (v) 

intermediaries, (vi) market makers, (vii) 

service providers, (viii) end-users, (ix) 

academia, (x) public interest groups, (xi) 

regulators, and (xii) asset managers. The 

MRAC has held approximately 2–4 

meetings per year. MRAC members 

serve at the pleasure of the Commission. 

In addition, MRAC members do not 

receive compensation or honoraria for 

their services, and they are not 

reimbursed for travel and per diem 

expenses. 

The Commission seeks members who 

represent organizations or groups with 

an interest in the MRAC’s mission and 

function and reflect a wide range of 

perspectives and interests related to the 

derivatives markets and other financial 

markets. To advise the Commission 

effectively, MRAC members must have 

a high-level of expertise and experience 

in the derivatives and financial markets 

and the Commission’s regulation of 

such markets, including from a 

historical perspective. To the extent 

practicable, the Commission will strive 

to select members reflecting wide 

ethnic, racial, gender, and age 

representation. MRAC members should 

be open to participating in a public 

forum. 

The Commission invites the 

submission of nominations for MRAC 

membership. Each nomination 

submission should include relevant 

information about the proposed 

member, such as the individual’s name, 

title, and organizational affiliation as 

well as information that supports the 

individual’s qualifications to serve on 

the MRAC. The submission should also 

include suggestions for topics for 

discussion at future MRAC meetings as 

well as the name and email or mailing 

address of the person nominating the 

proposed member. 

Submission of a nomination is not a 

guarantee of selection as a member of 

the MRAC. As noted in the MRAC’s 

Membership Balance Plan, the CFTC 

identifies members for the MRAC 

through a variety of methods. Such 

methods may include public requests 

for nominations for membership; 

recommendations from existing 

advisory committee members; 

consultations with knowledgeable 

persons outside the CFTC (industry, 

consumer groups, other state or federal 

government agencies, academia, etc.); 

requests to be represented received from 

individuals and organizations; and 

Commissioners’ and CFTC staff’s 

professional knowledge of those 

experienced in the global markets. The 

office of the Commissioner primarily 

responsible for the MRAC plays a 

primary, but not exclusive, role in this 

process and makes recommendations 

regarding membership to the 

Commission. The Commission, by vote, 

authorizes members to serve on the 

MRAC. 

In addition, the Commission invites 

submissions from the public regarding 

the topics on which MRAC should 

focus. In other words, topics that: 

(a) Reflect matters of public concern 

to clearinghouses, exchanges, swap 

execution facilities, swap data 

repositories, intermediaries, market 

makers, service providers, end-users 

and the Commission regarding systemic 

issues that impact the stability of the 

derivatives markets and other related 

financial markets; and/or 

(b) Are important to otherwise assist 

the Commission in identifying and 

understanding the impact and 

implications of the evolving market 

structure of the derivatives markets and 

other related financial markets. 

Each topic submission should include 

the commenter’s name and email or 

mailing address.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

104(b) of the Consumer Product Safety 

Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) 

requires the Commission to adopt 

mandatory standards for durable infant 

or toddler products. 15 U.S.C. 

2056a(b)(1). Mandatory standards must 

be ‘‘substantially the same as’’ voluntary 

standards, or may be ‘‘more stringent’’ 

than voluntary standards, if the 

Commission determines that more 

stringent requirements would further 

reduce the risk of injury associated with 

the products. Id. Mandatory standards 

may be based, in whole or in part, on 

a voluntary standard. 

Pursuant to section 104(b)(4)(B) of the 

CPSIA, if a voluntary standards 

organization revises a standard that has 

been adopted, in whole or in part, as a 

consumer product safety standard under 

CPSIA section 104, it must notify the 

Commission. The revised voluntary 

standard then shall be considered to be 

a consumer product safety standard 

issued by the Commission under section 

9 of the Consumer Product Safety Act 

(15 U.S.C. 2058), effective 180 days after 

the date on which the organization 

notifies the Commission (or a later date 

specified by the Commission in the 

Federal Register) unless, within 90 days 

after receiving that notice, the 

Commission responds to the 

organization that it has determined that 

the proposed revision does not improve 

the safety of the consumer product 

covered by the standard, and therefore, 

the Commission is retaining its existing 

mandatory consumer product safety 

standard. 15 U.S.C. 2056a(b)(4)(B). 

Under this CPSIA authority, the 

Commission issued a mandatory safety 

rule for sling carriers. The rulemaking 

created 16 CFR part 1228, which 

incorporated by reference ASTM 

F2907–15, Standard Consumer Safety 

Specification for Sling Carriers. 82 FR 

8671 (Jan. 30, 2017). The mandatory 

standard included performance 

requirements and test methods, as well 

as requirements for warning labels and 

instructional literature, to address 

hazards to children associated with 

sling carriers. On April 20, 2020, the 

CPSC published a revised standard for 

sling carriers, which incorporated by 

reference ASTM F2907–19, with 

modifications to the requirements for 

test methods, labeling, and instructional 

literature which improved the safety of 

sling carriers. 85 FR 21766. 

In April 2022, ASTM published a 

further revised version of the 

incorporated voluntary standard. On 

May 23, 2022, ASTM notified the 

Commission that it had approved the 

revised version of the voluntary 

standard. This revised version includes 

revisions made to the standard in 2021 

(ASTM F2907–21) and 2022 (ASTM 

F2907–22). 

CPSC staff is assessing the revised 

voluntary standard to determine, 

consistent with section 104(b)(4)(B) of 

the CPSIA, its effect on the safety of the 

consumer product covered by the 

standard. The Commission invites 

public comment on that question to 

inform Staff’s assessment and any 

subsequent Commission consideration 

of the revisions in ASTM F2907–21 and 

ASTM F2907–22. 

The existing voluntary standard and 

the revised voluntary standard are 

available for review in several ways. 

ASTM has provided read-only copies, at 

no cost, of the red-lined versions of 

ASTM F2907–21 and ASTM F2907–22 

that identify the changes made to the 

ASTM F2907–19 version, and the 

revised standard, on ASTM’s website at: 

https://www.astm.org/CPSC.htm. 

Likewise, a read-only copy of the 

existing, incorporated standard is 

available for viewing, at no cost, on the 

ASTM website at: https://

www.astm.org/products-services/ 

reading-room.html. Interested parties 

can also download copies of the 

standards by purchasing them from 

ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor 

Drive, P.O. Box C700, West 

Conshohocken, PA 19428–2959; phone: 

610–832–9585; www.astm.org. 

Alternatively, interested parties can 

schedule an appointment to inspect 

copies of the standards at CPSC’s 

Division of the Secretariat, U.S. 

Consumer Product Safety Commission, 

4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, MD 

20814, telephone: 301–504–7479; email: 

cpsc-os@cpsc.gov. 

Comments must be received by June 

17, 2022. Because of the short statutory 

time frame Congress established for the 

Commission to consider revised 

voluntary standards under section 

104(b)(4) of the CPSIA, CPSC will not 

consider comments received past this 

date.
