    The Department of State is holding the next meeting of its Advisory 
Committee on International Communications and Information Policy. The 
Committee was renewed in 1996, in order to continue to provide a formal 
channel for regular consultation and coordination on major economic,

and information policy, especially as these issues and problems involve 
users of information and communication services, providers of such 
services, technology research and development, foreign industrial and 
regulatory policy, the activities of international organizations with 
regard to communications and information, and developing country 
interests.
    The 30-person committee was appointed by Ambassador Vonya B. 
McCann, United States Coordinator for International Communications and 
Information Policy, U.S. Department of State, and serves under the 
Chairmanship of Ed Black, President, Computer & Communications Industry 
Association.
    The purpose of this meeting will be to hear reports from the 
working groups on various issues that chart the future direction and 
work plan of the committee. The members will look at the substantive 
issues on which the committee should focus, as well as specific 
countries and regions of interest to the committee.
    This meeting will be held on Thursday, September 4, 1997, from 9:30
