COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION

 

Regulatory Coordination Advisory Committee; Second Renewal

    The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has determined to renew 
for a period of two years its advisory committee designated as the 
Commission's ``Regulatory Coordination Advisory Committee.'' As 
required by section 14(a)(2)(A) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 
5 U.S.C. app. 2, 14(a)(2)(A), and 41 CFR section 101-6.1007 and 
101.6.1029, the Commission has consulted with the Committee Management 
Secretariat of the General Services Administration, and the Commission 
certifies that the renewal of the advisory committee is in the public 
interest in connection with duties imposed on the Commission by the 
Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C. 1 et seq., as amended.
    This Committee was originally created by the Commodity Futures 
Trading Commission to report and make recommendations to the Commission 
on subjects relating to regulatory coordination. The Committee's scope 
is being broadened to reflect its additional objectives of providing 
advice and recommendations to the Commission on streamlining 
regulations and operations, cutting operating costs and improving 
efficiency of operations as outlined in the Vice President's National 
Performance Review Report. The Committee meets publicly to discuss 
reports and recommendations on these subjects. It also considers 
regulatory modifications and other proposals that are intended to 
address the needs of users of the commodity futures markets, including 
the financial and agricultural futures markets.
    A number of working groups have been formed to examine various 
areas in greater detail. These include working groups on managed funds, 
clearance and settlement, international issues, and speculative limits. 
The reports and findings of these working groups are discussed at the 
meetings of the full advisory committee.
    Acting Chairman Barbara Pedersen Holum serves as Chairman and 
Designated Federal Official of the Regulatory Coordination Advisory 
Committee. The Advisory Committee's other members include a broad 
cross-section of users of financial markets and other affected and 
interested persons from both the private and public sectors including: 
institutional market participants, agricultural and financial services 
companies, broker-dealers, futures commission merchants; commodity pool 
operators and commodity trading advisors; members of the academic 
community; and former regulatory and public officials. This cross-
section provides a blend of both industry users and persons with a more 
general knowledge of the industry.
    Interested persons may obtain information or make comments by 
writing to the commodity Futures Trading Commission, 2033 K Street NW., 
Washington, DC 20581.

    Issued in Washington, DC this 8th day of April, 1994 by the 
Commission.
Jean A. Webb,
Secretary of the Commission.
