Notice of Renewal of the Charter of the International 
Telecommunication Advisory Committee (ITAC)

SUMMARY: This notice announces the renewal of the Charter for the 
International Telecommunication Advisory Committees (ITAC). In 
accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act 
(Pub. L. 92-463, 5 U.S.C. Appendix) and the general authority of the 
Secretary of State and the Department of State set forth in Title 22 of 
the United States code, in particular Sections 2656 and 2707, the 
charter of the International Telecommunication Advisory Committee has 
been extended until July 22, 2016.
    The ITAC primarily consists of members of the telecommunications 
industry, ranging from network operators and service providers to 
equipment vendors, members of academia, members of civil society, and 
officials of interested government agencies. The ITAC provides views 
and advice to the Department of State on positions on international 
telecommunications and information policy matters. This advice has been 
a major factor in ensuring that the United States is well prepared to 
participate effectively in the international telecommunications and 
information policy arena.
