SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.65 and approval by 
the Department of Health and Human Services, FDA is announcing the 
renewal of the Obstetrics, Reproductive and Urologic 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 data on the safety and 
effectiveness of marketed and investigational human drug products for 
use in the practice of obstetrics, gynecology, urology and related 
specialties, and makes appropriate recommendations to the Commissioner.
    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 obstetrics, gynecology, urology, pediatrics, epidemiology, or 
statistics and related specialties. Members will be invited to serve 
for overlapping terms of up to 4 years. Non-Federal members of this 
committee will serve as Special Government Employees, representatives 
or Ex-Officio members. Federal members will serve as Regular Government 
Employees or Ex-Officios. 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 representative member who is identified with industry 
interests. There may also be an alternate industry representative.
