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 Dermatologic and Ophthalmic Drugs Advisory Committee 
(the Committee). The Committee is a discretionary Federal advisory 
committee established to provide advice to the Commissioner.
    The 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 available data concerning the 
safety and effectiveness of marketed and investigational human drug 
products for use in the treatment of dermatologic and ophthalmic 
disorders and makes appropriate recommendations to the Commissioner.
    The Committee shall consist of a core of nine voting members 
including two Chairpersons. Members and the Chairpersons are selected 
by the Commissioner or designee from among authorities knowledgeable in 
the fields of dermatology, ophthalmology, internal medicine, pathology, 
immunology, epidemiology or statistics, and other related professions. 
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.

contacting the Designated Federal Officer (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION 
CONTACT).
    In light of the fact that no change has been made to the committee 
name or description of duties, no amendment will be made to 21 CFR 
14.100.
    This document is issued under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 
U.S.C. app.). For general information related to FDA advisory 
committees, please check https://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm.
