SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant to 41 CFR 102-3.65 and approval by 
the Department of Health and Human Services and by the General Services 
Administration, FDA is announcing the renewal of the Peripheral and 
Central Nervous System Drugs Advisory Committee (the Committee). The 
Committee is a discretionary Federal advisory committee established to 
provide advice to the Commissioner. The Committee advises the 
Commissioner or designee in discharging responsibilities as they relate 
to helping to ensure safe and effective drugs for human use and, as 
required, any other product for which FDA has regulatory 
responsibility.
    The Committee reviews and evaluates data concerning the safety and 
effectiveness of marketed and investigational human drug products for 
use in the treatment of neurologic diseases.
    The Committee shall consist of a core of nine voting members, 
including the Chair. Members and the Chair are selected by the 
Commissioner or designee from among authorities knowledgeable in the 
fields of neurology, neuropharmacology, neuropathology, otolaryngology, 
epidemiology or statistics, and related specialties. Members will be 
invited to serve for overlapping terms of up to 4 years. Non-Federal 
members of this committee will serve as Special Government Employees, 
representatives or ex-officio members. Federal members will serve as 
Regular Government Employees or ex-officio members. The core of voting 
members may include one technically qualified member, selected by the 
Commissioner or designee, who is identified with consumer interests and 
is recommended by either a consortium of consumer-oriented 
organizations or other interested persons. In addition to the voting 
members, the Committee may include one non-voting representative member 
who is identified with industry interests. There may also be an 
alternate industry representative.

INFORMATION CONTACT). In light of the fact that no change has been made 
to the committee name or description of duties, no amendment will be 
made to 21 CFR 14.100.
    This notice is issued under the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 
U.S.C. app.). For general information related to FDA advisory
