Federal Advisory Committee Act

The Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (Pub. L. 92–463, 86 Stat. 770, enacted October 6, 1972), is a United States federal law which governs the behavior of federal advisory committees. In particular, it has special emphasis on open meetings, chartering, public involvement, and reporting. It was codified in December 2022.

The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) oversees the process.
