Subject
Summary:

Because of concerns about the proliferation and the poor management of advisory committees, Congress passed the Federal Advisory Committee Act to keep the number of these committees to a minimum. The act directs the General Services Administration (GSA) to establish and maintain a Committee Management Secretariat to oversee advisory committee activities. In 1993, the President issued an executive order directing agencies to reduce by at least one-third the number of discretionary advisory committees that they sponsored by the end of fiscal year 1993. This testimony discusses (1) whether the President's executive order achieved its goal and the extent to which the costs and number of committee members changed and (2) GSA's oversight responsibilities under the act.
