members may include one technically
qualified member, selected by the

identified with consumer interests and
is recommended by either a consortium
of consumer-oriented organizations or
other interested persons. In addition to
the voting members, the Committee may
include one non-voting representative
member who is identified with industry
interests. There may also be an alternate
industry representative.
The Committee name and function
have been established with the
establishment of the Committee charter.

amending § 14.100 (21 CFR 14.100) to
add the Committee name and function
to its current list as set forth in the
regulatory text of this document.
Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(4)(B) and (d)

finds good cause to dispense with notice
and public comment procedures and to
proceed to an immediate effective date

delayed effective date are unnecessary
and are not in the public interest as this
final rule is merely codifying the
addition of the name and function of the
GeMDAC to the list of standing FDA
advisory committees. The establishment
of the Committee is already effective,
and the name and function that will be
added to § 14.100 reflect the Committee
charter. The Agency is amending

regulatory text of this document.
