ACTION:
The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau
of Political-Military Affairs’ Defense
Trade Advisory Group (DTAG) is
accepting membership applications. The
Bureau of Political-Military Affairs is
interested in applications from subject
matter experts from the United States
defense industry, relevant trade and
labor associations, academic, and
foundation personnel. Originally
announced in the Federal Register at 76
FR 72745, the Department is now
seeking additional membership
applications in order to have a more
diverse membership for the 2012–2014
DTAG.
The DTAG was established as a
continuing committee under the
authority of 22 U.S.C. Sections 2651a
and 2656 and the Federal Advisory
Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App.
(‘‘FACA’’). The purpose of the DTAG is
to provide the Bureau of PoliticalMilitary Affairs with a formal channel
for regular consultation and
coordination with U.S. private sector
defense exporters and defense trade
specialists on issues involving U.S.
laws, policies, and regulations for
munitions exports. The DTAG advises
the Bureau on its support for and
regulation of defense trade to help
ensure that impediments to legitimate
exports are reduced while the foreign
policy and national security interests of
the United States continue to be
protected and advanced in accordance
with the Arms Export Control Act
(AECA), as amended. Major topics
addressed by the DTAG include (a)
policy issues on commercial defense
trade and technology transfer; (b)
regulatory and licensing procedures
applicable to defense articles, services,

and technical data; (c) technical issues
involving the U.S. Munitions List
(USML); and (d) questions relating to
actions designed to carry out the AECA

Members are appointed by the
Assistant Secretary of State for PoliticalMilitary Affairs on the basis of
individual substantive and technical
expertise and qualifications, and must
be representatives of United States
defense industry, relevant trade and
labor associations, academic, and
foundation personnel. DTAG members
will represent the views of their
organizations. All DTAG members shall
be aware of the Department of State’s
mandate that arms transfers must
further U.S. national security and
foreign policy interests. DTAG members
also shall be versed in the complexity of
commercial defense trade and industrial
competitiveness, and all members must
be able to advise the Bureau on these
matters. While members are expected to
represent their companies or
organizations, national security and
foreign policy interests of the United
States shall be the basis for all policy
and technical recommendations.
DTAG members’ responsibilities
include:
• Service for a consecutive two-year
term which may be renewed or
terminated at the discretion of the
Assistant Secretary of State for PoliticalMilitary Affairs (membership shall
automatically terminate for members
who fail to attend two consecutive
DTAG plenary meetings).
• Making recommendations in
accordance with the DTAG Charter and
the FACA.
• Making policy and technical
recommendations within the scope of
the U.S. commercial export control
regime as mandated in the AECA, the
ITAR, and appropriate directives.
Please note that DTAG members may
not be reimbursed for travel, per diem,
and other expenses incurred in
connection with their duties as DTAG
members. An individual who is
currently registered, or was registered at
any time during the period of January 1,
2010 to the present, as a Federal
lobbyist is not eligible to serve on the
DTAG.
Individuals who applied for
membership in response to the Notice at

Their applications will be considered in
conjunction with any application
received as a result of this Notice.
