SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Administrator of the U.S. General
Services Administration (GSA) established the Open Government Federal
Advisory Committee (OG FAC) as a discretionary advisory committee under
agency authority in accordance with the provisions of the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C. 10. GSA has
determined that the establishment of OG FAC is necessary and in the
public interest.
GSA's Open Government Secretariat supports ensuring a more
transparent, responsive and inclusive Federal Government. This is done
by providing channels for members of the public to regularly engage
with their government. The OG FAC will advise GSA in its endeavor to
increase the public's access to data, to better advance equity, engage
the public in the regulatory process, make government records more
accessible, and improve the delivery of government services and
benefits through expert advice.
The OG FAC will serve as an advisory body to GSA on GSA Open
Government initiatives including GSA's creation, implementation and
monitoring of U.S. Open Government National Action Plans (NAPs) and
commitment themes. The initial focus for the OG FAC will be to provide
advice to GSA on the development of NAP 6, Open Government Policy, and
Public Engagement. The OG FAC will advise GSA's Administrator on
emerging open government issues, challenges and opportunities to
support GSA's Open Government Secretariat.
The OG FAC advisory committee is essential to conduct agency
business for GSA and bring together civil society, Federal agencies,
academia, industry, and other interested stakeholders. GSA needs a wide
diversity of views on Open Government initiatives.
Mehul Parekh,
Acting Associate Administrator, Office of Government-wide Policy,
General Services Administration.
