This determination follows consultation with the Committee Management 
Secretariat, General Services Administration.
    The Committee provides advice to the Bureau of Labor Statistics 
from the points of view of data users from various sectors of the U.S.

analysis, dissemination, and use of the Bureau's statistics, on its 
published reports, and on the broader aspects of its overall mission 
and function.
    The Committee will function solely as an advisory body to the BLS, 
on technical topics selected by the BLS.
