provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act of 1972, the Government
in the Sunshine Act of 1976 (5 U.S.C.
552b), and other appropriate Federal
regulations.
Such subcommittees shall not work
independently of the chartered

the Advisory Board for full deliberation
and discussion. Subcommittees have no

members. Subcommittee members, who
are not Advisory Board members, shall
be appointed in the same manner as the
Advisory Board members. Such
individuals, if not full-time or part-time
government employees, shall be
appointed to serve as experts and
consultants under the authority of 5
U.S.C. 3109, and serve as special
government employee members, whose
