SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the authority of 42 U.S.C. 217a, 
Section 222 of the Public Health Service Act, as amended, SACHRP was 
established to provide expert advice and recommendations to the 
Secretary of Health and Human Services, through the Assistant Secretary 
for Health, on issues and topics pertaining to or associated with the 
protection of human research subjects.
    The Subpart A Subcommittee (SAS) was established by SACHRP in 
October 2006 and is charged with developing recommendations for 
consideration by SACHRP regarding the application of subpart A of 45 
CFR part 46 in the current research environment.
    The Subcommittee on Harmonization (SOH) was established by SACHRP 
at its July 2009 meeting and charged with identifying and prioritizing 
areas in which regulations and/or guidelines for human subjects 
research adopted by various agencies or offices within HHS would 
benefit from harmonization, consistency, clarity, simplification and/or 
coordination.
    The SACHRP meeting will open to the public at 8:30 a.m., on 
Tuesday, July 10, 2018, followed by opening remarks from Dr. Jerry 
Menikoff, Director of OHRP and Dr. Stephen Rosenfeld, SACHRP Chair.
    The SAS and SOH subcommittees will present their recommendations 
regarding the description of ``key information,'' as required by the 
revised Common Rule at Sec.  46.116(a)(5)(i). This will be followed by 
a discussion of the application of the revised Common Rule's exemptions 
at 46.104(d) to FDA-regulated research, and recommendations on the 
interpretation of Sec.  46.104(d)(1) and (2) for HHS funded research.
    The Wednesday, July 11, meeting will begin at 8:30 a.m. The SAS 
subcommittee will present and discuss recommendations on the 
interpretation of ``reasonably available'' at Sec.  46.408(b), as well 
as discuss issues surrounding payment to subjects for participation in 
research. Modifications to the previous day's work will be discussed 
and finalized. The meeting will adjourn at approximately 4:00 p.m., 
July 11, 2018.
    Time for public comment sessions will be allotted both days. On-

statements as public comment should provide their comments by email to 
[email protected] or by fax to (240) 453-6909 at least five business days 
prior to the meeting.
    Public attendance at the meeting is limited to space available. 
Individuals who plan to attend and need special assistance, such as 
sign language interpretation or other reasonable accommodations, should 
notify the designated SACHRP point of contact at the address/phone 
number listed above at least one week prior to the meeting.
