DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Departmental Offices; Debt Management Advisory Committee Meeting
Notice is hereby given, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. App. 2, 10(a)(2), that
a meeting will be held at the United States Treasury Department, 15th
Street and Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, DC on May 2, 2023, at
9:15 a.m., of the following debt management advisory committee:
Treasury Borrowing Advisory Committee.
At this meeting, the Treasury is seeking advice from the Committee
on topics related to the economy, financial markets, Treasury
financing, and debt management. Following the working session, the
Committee will present a written report of its recommendations. The
meeting will be closed to the public, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. App. 2,
10(d) and Public Law 103-202, Sec. 202(c)(1)(B)(31 U.S.C. 3121 note).
This notice shall constitute my determination, pursuant to the
authority placed in heads of agencies by 5 U.S.C. App. 2, 10(d) and
vested in me by Treasury Department Order No. 101-05, that the meeting
will consist of discussions and debates of the issues presented to the
Committee by the Secretary of the Treasury and the making of
recommendations of the Committee to the Secretary, pursuant to Public
Law 103-202,Sec. 202(c)(1)(B).
Thus, this information is exempt from disclosure under that
provision and 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(3)(B). In addition, the
[[Page 24278]]
meeting is concerned with information that is exempt from disclosure
under 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(A). The public interest requires that such
meetings be closed to the public because the Treasury Department
requires frank and full advice from representatives of the financial
community prior to making its final decisions on major financing
operations. Historically, this advice has been offered by debt
management advisory committees established by the several major
segments of the financial community. When so utilized, such a committee
is recognized to be an advisory committee under 5 U.S.C. App. 2, 3.
Although the Treasury's final announcement of financing plans may
not reflect the recommendations provided in reports of the Committee,
premature disclosure of the Committee's deliberations and reports would
be likely to lead to significant financial speculation in the
securities market. Thus, this meeting falls within the exemption
covered by 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(A).
The Office of Debt Management is responsible for maintaining
records of debt management advisory committee meetings and for
providing annual reports setting forth a summary of Committee
activities and such other matters as may be informative to the public
consistent with the policy of 5 U.S.C. 552(b). The Designated Federal
Officer or other responsible agency official who may be contacted for
additional information is Fred Pietrangeli, Director for Office of Debt
Management (202) 622-1876.
Dated: April 14, 2023.
Frederick E. Pietrangeli,
Director, (for Office of Debt Management).
