PART 95_ADVISORY COMMITTEES--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  95.11  Meetings; industry advisory committees.

    (a) Meetings of an industry advisory committee may be held only at 
the call of a full-time, salaried officer or employee of the Department, 
with an agenda formulated by that officer or employee.
    (b) Each meeting shall be chaired by a full-time, salaried officer 
or employee of the Government who is required to adjourn the meeting 
whenever he considers it to be in the public interest. The Secretary or 
his designee may waive the requirements of this paragraph in any case in 
which he determines that:
    (1) Compliance with that requirement would interfere with the proper 
functioning of the committee or would be impracticable;
    (2) Adequate provisions are made to assure otherwise that the 
operation of the committee is subject to Government control and purpose;
    (3) The waiver is in the public interest; and
    (4) The meeting will be conducted in the presence of a full-time, 
salaried officer or employee of the Government who is required to 
adjourn the meeting whenever he considers it to be in the public 
interest.
    (c) A verbatim transcript shall be kept of the proceedings at each 
meeting, including the name of each person present, his affiliation, and 
the capacity in which he attended, except in any case in which the 
Secretary or his designee determines that a verbatim transcript would 
interfere with the proper functioning of the committee or would be 
impracticable and therefore waives the requirement as being in the 
public interest. In such a case the procedure prescribed in Sec.  
95.9(c) applies.
    (d) No industry advisory committee may receive, compile, or discuss 
data or reports showing the current or projected commercial operations 
of any identified business enterprise.
