Advisory Committee Information Hotline

AGENCY:

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:

Notice.

SUMMARY:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing that we have revised the Advisory Committee Information Hotline (the hotline). The hotline provides the public with access to the most current information available on FDA advisory committee meetings. This notice supersedes all previously published announcements of FDA's Advisory Committee Information Hotline.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Michael F. Ortwerth, Director, Advisory Committee Oversight and Management Staff (HF-4), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-1220.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Advisory Committee Information Hotline can be accessed by dialing 1-800-741-8138 or 301-443-0572. The advisory committee meeting information and information updates can also be accessed via FDA's Advisory Committee Internet site at http://www.fda.gov/AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm .

Each advisory committee is assigned a 10-digit number. This 10-digit number will appear in each individual notice of meeting. The public can obtain information about a particular advisory committee meeting by using the committee's 10-digit number. Information on the hotline is preliminary and may change before a meeting is actually held. The hotline will be updated when such changes are made. The following is a list of each advisory committee's 10-digit number to be used when accessing the hotline. The list has been updated to add the newly established advisory committee in the Center for Tobacco called the Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee.

The hotline will provide the most recent information available on upcoming advisory committee meetings, guidance for making an oral presentation during the open public hearing portion of a meeting, and procedures on obtaining copies of transcripts of advisory committee meetings. Because the hotline will communicate the most current information available about any particular advisory committee meeting, this system will provide interested parties with timely and equal access to such information. The hotline should also conserve agency resources by reducing the current volume of inquiries individual FDA offices and employees must handle concerning advisory committee schedules and procedures.

This notice is issued under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C. app. 2) and 21 CFR part 14, relating to advisory committees.

Dated: February 24, 2010.

Joanne Less,

Acting Associate Commissioner for Special Medical Programs.
