and Executive Order 14073.
    Tentative Agenda:
     Deliberate and Approve Report on Reauthorizing the

    Public Participation: The meeting is open to the public. It is the 
policy of the NQIAC to accept written public comments no longer than 5 
pages and to accommodate oral public comments, whenever possible. The 
NQIAC expects that public statements presented at its meetings will not 
be repetitive of previously submitted oral or written statements. The 
public comment period for this meeting will take place on May 19, 2023, 
at a time specified in the meeting agenda. This public comment period 
is designed only for substantive commentary on NQIAC's work, not for 
business marketing purposes. The Chairperson of the Committee will 
conduct the meeting to facilitate the orderly conduct of business.
    Oral Comments: To be considered for the public speaker list at the 
meeting, interested parties should register to speak at 
[email protected], no later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on May 12, 
2023. To accommodate as many speakers as possible, the time for public 
comments will be limited to three (3) minutes per person, with a total 
public comment period of up to 15 minutes. If more speakers register 
than there is space available on the agenda, NQIAC will select speakers 
on a first-come, first-served basis from those who applied. Those not 
able to present oral comments may always file written comments with the 
committee.
    Written Comments: Although written comments are accepted 
continuously, written comments relevant to the subjects of the meeting 
should be submitted to [email protected] no later than 12:00 p.m. 
Eastern Time on May 12, 2023, so that the comments may be made 
available to the NQIAC members prior to this meeting for their 
consideration. Please note that because NQIAC operates under the 
provisions of FACA, all public comments and related materials will be 
treated as public documents and will be made available for public 
inspection, including being posted on the NQIAC website.
    Minutes: The minutes of this meeting will be available on the 
National Quantum Initiative Advisory Committee website at: https://www.quantum.gov/about/nqiac/.
