    (a) In enacting the Government in the Sunshine Act, 5 U.S.C. 552b, 
the Congress stated the policy that, to the fullest practicable extent, 
the public is entitled to information regarding the decisionmaking 
processes of the Federal Government. The purpose of the Government in 
the Sunshine Act is to provide the public with such information while 
protecting both the rights of individuals and the ability of the 
Government to carry out its responsibilities. When the Commissioners of 
the Consumer Product Safety Commission hold meetings for the purpose of 
jointly conducting or disposing of Commission business they will conduct 
these meetings in accordance with the provisions of the Government in 
the Sunshine Act.
    (b) This part 1013 prescribes rules the Commission follows in 
carrying out the Government in the Sunshine Act.
