Federal advisory committees (FAC) are to be established and to operate in accordance with requirements of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). Congress is currently exploring possible improvements to FACA, and this report addresses certain questions about FAC's and FACA requirements. Most respondents to the study's questionnaire conveyed a generally shared perception that advisory committees were providing balanced and independent advice and recommendations.
