agreement and other matters arising in connection with the development, 
implementation and administration of the trade policy of the United 
States. The meeting will be open to the public and press from 9 to 11 
a.m. and from 3 to 5 p.m. At these times the Commission will continue 
the study phase of its work and consider: (1) Asian perspectives on 
U.S. trade and investment policies and on the region; (2) APEC; (3) 
various assessments of the effectiveness and nature of U.S. trade and 
investment policies; (4) measures of success in economic and trade 
policy; and (4) the application of game theory to international 
economics. Attendance during this part of the meeting is for
