Next Week’s 73rd Plenary Session (ACUS Update)
As I noted in my last update, the Administrative Conference is set to host it’s 73rd Plenary Session on Wednesday, December 16 from 10-5 and and Thursday, December 17 from 10-4. The agenda is packed! There are six recommendations and one statement up for debate and adoption. The Federal Register notice advises comments be submitted by 10 am Monday, December 14 to ensure consideration by the Assembly.
Links to all of the project webpages, proposed recommendations and statement, and pre-submitted member comments are available on plenary webpage. At the bottom of the plenary is a form for submitting comments. Links to the key information for all seven projects are also collected below:
