SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(``Commission'') has determined to reestablish its Technology Advisory
Committee. The Commission has determined that the reestablishment of
the advisory committee is in the public interest in connection with the
duties imposed on the Commission by the Commodity Exchange Act, 7
U.S.C. 1-25, as amended. The Technology Advisory Committee will operate
for two years from the date it is reestablished unless, before the
expiration of that time period, its charter is renewed in accordance
with section 14(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, or the
Chairman of the Commission, with the concurrence of the other
Commissioners, shall direct that the advisory committee terminate on an
earlier date.
The purpose of the Technology Advisory Committee is to conduct
public meetings, to submit reports and recommendations to the
Commission, and to otherwise assist the Commission in identifying and
understanding how new developments in technology are being applied and
utilized in the industry, and their impact on the operation of the
markets. The committee will allow the Commission to be an active
participant in market innovation, explore the appropriate investment in
technology, and advise the Commission on the need for strategies to
implement rules and regulations to support the Commission's mission of
ensuring the integrity of the markets. Meetings of the Technology
Advisory Committee are public.
The Technology Advisory Committee may be reestablished 15 days
after publication of this notice by filing a reestablishment charter
with the Commission; the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and
Forestry; the House Committee on Agriculture; the Library of Congress;
and the General Services Administration's Committee Management
Secretariat. A copy of the reestablishment charter also will be posted
on the Commission's Web site at http://www.cftc.gov.
Issued in Washington, DC, on May 19, 2010, by the Commission.
David A. Stawick,
Secretary of the Commission.
