SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.65 and approval by 
the Department of Health and Human Services pursuant to 45 CFR part 11 
and by the General Services Administration, FDA is announcing the 
renewal of the Endocrinologic and Metabolic Drugs Advisory Committee. 
The committee is a discretionary Federal advisory committee established 
to provide advice to the Commissioner. The Endocrinologic and Metabolic 
Drugs Advisory Committee advises the Commissioner or designee in 
discharging responsibilities as they relate to helping to ensure safe 
and effective drugs for human use and, as required, any other product 
for which FDA has regulatory responsibility.
    The Committee reviews and evaluates data concerning the safety and 
effectiveness of marketed and investigational human drug products for 
use in the treatment of endocrine and metabolic disorders, and makes 
appropriate recommendations to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs.

[[Page 60360]]

    The Committee shall consist of a core of 11 voting members 
including the Chair. Members and the Chair are selected by the 
Commissioner or designee from among authorities knowledgeable in the 
fields of endocrinology, metabolism, epidemiology or statistics, and 
related specialties. Members will be invited to serve for overlapping 
terms of up to 4 years. Almost all non-Federal members of this 
committee serve as Special Government Employees. The core of voting 
members may include one technically qualified member, selected by the 
Commissioner or designee, who is identified with consumer interests and 
is recommended by either a consortium of consumer-oriented 
organizations or other interested persons. In addition to the voting 
members, the Committee may include one non-voting member who is 
identified with industry interests.

committee name or description of duties, no amendment will be made to 
21 CFR 14.100.

U.S.C. app.). For general information related to FDA advisory
