SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Educational Research Policy and

Board works collaboratively with the Assistant Secretary for the Office 
of Educational Research and Improvement to forge a national consensus 
with respect to a long-term agenda for educational research, 
development, and dissemination, and to provide advice and assistance to 
the Assistant Secretary in administering the duties of the Office.
    The meeting of the Search Committee is closed to the public under 
the authority of Section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act 
(Pub. L. 92-463; 5 U.S.C. Appendix 2) and under exemptions (2) and (6) 
of Section 552b(c) of the Government in the Sunshine Act (Pub. L. 94-
409; 5 U.S.C. 552b(c) (2) and (6)). In discussing candidates for the 
position of Executive Director, the Committee will consider matters 
that relate solely to the internal rules and practices of the Board and 
the credentials, personal qualifications and

experience of potential candidates for the position of executive 
director, matters that would disclose information of a personal nature 
where disclosure would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of 
personal privacy if conducted in open session.
    A summary of the activities at the closed session and related 
matters which are informative to the public consistent with the policy 
of Title 5 U.S.C. 552b(c) will be available to the public within 14 
days of the meeting.
    The public is being given less than the required 15 days' notice 
because of the difficulty in accommodating the schedules of all members 
of the Search Committee, which must complete its selection and 
interview process prior to the next full Board meeting on June 6.
    Records are kept of all Board proceedings, and are available for 
public inspection at the office of the National Educational Research 
Policy and Priorities Board, 555 New Jersey Ave., NW., Washington, DC 
20208-7564.

    Dated: April 1, 1996.
