DEPARTMENT OF STATE
[Public Notice No. 3045]
Secretary of State's Arms Control and Nonproliferation Advisory
Board
The Charter of the Secretary of State's Arms Control and
Nonproliferation Advisory Board is amended and renewed for a period of
two years. This Board succeeds and replaces the Arms Control and
Disarmament Agency's Director's Advisory Committee, in accordance with
the Arms Control and Disarmament Act, as amended (PL 105-277).
The Board advises the Secretary of State on scientific and policy
matters relating to arms control and nonproliferation. Operational
authority for all activities of the Board, including evaluation and
transmission of reports and appointment of members and staff, is
delegated to the Under Secretary for Arms Control and International
Security and Senior Adviser to the President and the Secretary of State
for Arms Control, Nonproliferation, and Disarmament.
The previous Director's Advisory Committee did extensive
investigation
[[Page 32602]]
and analysis of issues including landmine policy, space policy,
verification and compliance, and organizational issues relating to the
integration of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency into the
Department of State. The Board continues work in these areas, as well
as other aspects of arms control and nonproliferation.
Members of the Board provide a wide range of scientific and policy
backgrounds and opinion, while in all cases reflecting extensive
experience in arms control and/or nonproliferation.
Because of the sensitive national security material with which the
Board deals, its meetings are generally held in closed sessions.
However, public notice of the time and place of all meetings is
provided, and the Board is open to any public comment that is submitted
to it.
Robert Sherman,
Executive Director, Secretary of State's, Arms Control and
Nonproliferation Advisory Board.
