Extracted Data From: FACA Database Downloadable Datasets

This submission includes publicly available data extracted in its original form. Please reference the Related Publication listed here for source and citation information <br /><br /><blockquote>The Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) database is used by Federal agencies to continuously manage an average of 1,000 advisory committees government-wide. This database is also used by the Congress to perform oversight of related Executive Branch programs and by the public, the media, and others, to stay abreast of important developments resulting from advisory committee activities. Although centrally supported by the General Services Administration's Committee Management Secretariat, the database represents a true "shared system" wherein each participating agency and individual committee manager has responsibility for providing accurate and timely information that may be used to assure that the system's wide array of users has access to data required by FACA.<br /><br />Due to the migration of the FACA database in FY18 to the Salesforce platform, all datasets (beginning with FY18) will only be in a Microsoft Excel format.</blockquote>[Quote from: https://www.facadatabase.gov/FACA/s/FACADatasets]<br /><br />The submitted files are not the database itself, which is now apparently stored within Salesforce. Rather they are annual archives of the database from 1997 to 2023.<If you have questions about the underlying data stored here, please contact U.S. GSA via the Contact Us page at [https://www.facadatabase.gov/FACA/s/HelpDesk]
