                       SENATE COMMITTEE MEETINGS

  Title IV of Senate Resolution 4, agreed to by the Senate on February 
4, 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.

[[Page 12573]]

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 Thursday, July 11, 2002 may be found in the 
Daily Digest of today's Record.
