Advisory Committee on Disability Compensation, Notice of Meeting

    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, that the Advisory Committee on 
Disability Compensation (Committee) will meet on June 6-7, 2019. The 
Committee will meet at 1722 Eye Street NW, Washington, DC 20006. The 
meeting will be held in the AMO 3rd floor Training Complex. The meeting 
will begin at 8:30 a.m. EST and adjourn at 5:00 p.m. EST each day. The 
meeting is open to the public.
    The purpose of the Committee is to advise the Secretary of Veterans 
Affairs on the maintenance and periodic readjustment of the VA Schedule 
for Rating Disabilities. The Committee is to assemble and review 
relevant information relating to the nature and character of 
disabilities arising during service in the Armed Forces, provide an 
ongoing assessment of the effectiveness of the rating schedule, and 
give advice on the most appropriate means of responding to the needs of 
Veterans relating to disability compensation.
    On both days, the Committee will receive briefings on issues 
related to compensation for Veterans with service-connected 
disabilities and on other VA benefits programs. Time will be allocated 
for receiving public comments. Public comments will be limited to three 
minutes each. Individuals wishing to make oral statements before the 
Committee will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis. 
Individuals who speak are invited to submit 1-2-page summaries of their 
comments at the time of the meeting for inclusion in the official 
meeting record.
    The public may submit written statements for the Committee's review 
to Janice Stewart, Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Benefits 
Administration, Compensation Service, Policy Staff (211C), 810 Vermont 
Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20420 or email at [email protected]. 
Because the meeting is being held in a government building, a photo 
I.D. must be presented at the Guard's Desk as a part of the screening 
process. Due to an increase in security protocols, you should allow an 
additional 30 minutes before the meeting begins. Routine escort will be 
provided until 8:10 a.m. each day. Any member of the public wishing to 
attend the meeting or seeking additional information should email 
Janice Stewart or call her at (202) 461-9023.

    Dated: April 25, 2019.
Jelessa M. Burney,
Federal Advisory Committee Management Officer.
