Sunshine Act Meetings; Correction

SUMMARY: The National Council on Disability published a notice in the 
Federal Register of February 8, 2018, concerning a meeting of the 
Council. This document contains a correction to the agenda timing and

CONTACT PERSON FOR MORE INFORMATION: Anne Sommers, NCD, 1331 F Street

    In the Federal Register of February 8, 2018, in FR Doc. 18-02597, 
on page 5647, in the second column, correct the ``Matters to be 
Considered'' caption to read:

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: The Council will receive agency updates on 
policy projects, finance, governance, and other business. The Council 
will receive an update on the work done to date for its 2018 Progress 
Report to Congress and the President, which this year will focus on 
monitoring and enforcement efforts at the Equal Employment Opportunity 
Commission, the U.S. Access Board, and the U.S. Department of Labor. 
The Council will next release its latest report titled, ``U.S. Foreign 
Policy and Disability 2017: Progress and Promise'' with a summary of 
the report followed by a respondent panel. The Council will then 
revisit its policy project proposals from October 2017 in summaries of 
each proposal. Following this recap, the Council will hear from 
representatives from the U.S. Department of Justice Disability Rights 
Division, who have been asked to speak about recent ADA regulation 
rescissions as well as their work in the area of service animals. 
Following that presentation, the Council will receive public comments 
on which of the Council's proposed policy projects are of greatest 
priority to the disability community (including immigration; 
institutionalization following natural disasters; organ donation 
policies; a technology bill of rights; autonomous vehicle technology; 
guardianship due process concerns; and any others that may be raised 
during the course of the earlier summary of proposals).
    Following the public comment, the Council will discuss and vote on 
the slate of projects it will move forward for external funding 
opportunities and internal work of staff.
