broad tax administration policy matters. Various groups have suggested
operational improvements, offered constructive observations about IRS'
current or proposed policies, programs, and procedures, and advised the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue on particular issues having
substantive effect on Federal Tax Administration. It is important that
IRSAC membership continue to represent the range and make-up of broad
and diverse taxpayer and key stakeholder base.

skills, bring years of practical experience and knowledge to the group,
