[[Page E597]]

1977, calls for establishment of a system for a computerized schedule 
of all meetings and hearings of Senate committees, subcommittees, joint 
committees, and committees of conference. This title requires all such 
committees to notify the Office of the Senate Daily Digest--designated 
by the Rules Committee--of the time, place and purpose of the meetings, 
when scheduled and any cancellations or changes in the meetings as they 
occur.
  As an additional procedure along with the computerization of this 
information, the Office of the Senate Daily Digest will prepare this 
information for printing in the Extensions of Remarks section of the 
Congressional Record on Monday and Wednesday of each week.
  Meetings scheduled for Tuesday, May 8, 2018 may be found in the Daily 
Digest of today's Record.
