DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Federal Bureau of Investigation


Notice of Charter Reestablishment

    In accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act, Title 5, United States Code, Appendix, and Title 41, Code of 
Federal Regulations, Section 101-6.1015, with the concurrence of the 
Attorney General, I have determined that the reestablishment of the 
Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Advisory Policy Board 
(APB) is in the public interest. In connection with the performance of 
duties imposed upon the FBI by law, I hereby give notice of the 
reestablishment of the APB Charter.
    The APB provides me with general policy recommendations with 
respect to the philosophy, concept, and operational principles of the 
various criminal justice information systems managed by the FBI's CJIS 
Division.
    The APB includes representatives from local and state criminal 
justice agencies; tribal law enforcement representatives; members of 
the judicial, prosecutorial, and correctional sectors of the criminal 
justice community, as well as one individual representing a national 
security agency; a representative of the National Crime Prevention and 
Privacy Compact Council; a representative of federal agencies 
participating in the CJIS Division Systems; and representatives of 
criminal justice professional associations (i.e., the American 
Probation and Parole Association; American Society of Crime Laboratory 
Directors; International Association of Chiefs of Police; National 
District Attorneys Association; National Sheriffs Association; Major 
Cities Chiefs Association; Major County Sheriffs' of America 
Association; and a representative from a national professional 
association representing the courts or court administrators nominated 
by the Conference of Chief Justices). The Attorney General has granted 
me the authority to appoint all members to the APB.
    The APB functions solely as an advisory body in compliance with the 
provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The Charter has been 
filed in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

    Dated: April 12, 2021.
Christopher A. Wray,
Director.
