Advisory Committee on Disability Compensation, Notice of Meeting

    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2, that the Advisory 
Committee on Disability Compensation (Committee) will meet on September 
12-13, 2016. The Committee will meet at 1800 G Street NW., 5th Floor, 
Conference Room 542, Washington, DC 20006. The sessions will begin at 
8:30 a.m. and end at 4:30 p.m. 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.
    The Committee will receive briefings on issues related to 
compensation for Veterans with service-connected disabilities and 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 Dr. Ioulia Vvedenskaya, 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 clearance process. Due to an increase in security 
protocols, and in order to prevent delays in clearance processing, you 
should allow an additional 30 minutes before the meeting begins. 
Routine escort will be provided until 9:00 a.m. each day. Any member of 
the public wishing to attend the meeting or seeking additional 
information should email Dr. Vvedenskaya or call her at (202) 461-9882.
