addition, the Chairman of the Joint
Chiefs of Staff may appoint consultants,
with special expertise, to assist the
Board on an ad hoc basis, who shall be,
if approved by the Secretary of Defense,
appointed under the authority of 5
U.S.C. 3109. Neither the non-voting
observers nor the experts/consultants
shall have voting rights on the Board or
its subcommittees, shall count toward
the Board’s total membership, and shall
engage in Board deliberations.
The Department, when necessary and
consistent with the Board’s mission and
DoD policies and procedures, may
establish subcommittees, task groups, or
working groups to support the Board.
Establishment of subcommittees will be
based upon a written determination, to
include terms of reference, by the
Secretary of Defense, the Deputy
Secretary of Defense, or the Board’s
sponsor.
These subcommittees shall not work
independently of the chartered Board
and shall report all of their
recommendations and advice to the
Board for full deliberation and
discussion. Subcommittees have no
authority to make decisions on behalf of
the chartered Board nor can any
subcommittee or any of its members
update or report directly to the
Department of Defense or to any Federal
officers or employees.
All subcommittee members shall be
appointed in the same manner as the
Board members; that is, the Secretary of
Defense shall appoint subcommittee
members even if the member in
question is already a Board member.
Subcommittee members, with the
approval of the Secretary of Defense,
may serve a term of service on the
subcommittee of one to four years;
however, no member shall serve more
than two consecutive terms of service
on the subcommittee. Such individuals
shall be appointed to serve as experts
and consultants under the authority of
5 U.S.C. 3109, and serve as special
government employees, whose
appointments must be renewed by the
Secretary of Defense on an annual basis.
With the exception of travel and per
diem for official travel, subcommittee
members shall serve without
compensation.
All subcommittees operate under the
provisions of FACA, the Government in
the Sunshine Act, governing Federal
statutes and regulations, and governing
DoD policies/procedures.

Freeman, Deputy Advisory Committee
Management Officer for the Department
