The Committee consists of representatives of the communications and information technology industries who are selected by the U.S. Coordinator for International Communications and Information Policy to serve generally for a two-year term. The Committee will continue to follow the procedures prescribed by the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). Meetings will continue to be open to the public unless a determination is made in accordance with section 10(d) of the FACA, 5 U.S.C.
