{"abstract":"This Circular outlines the Administration's policy of controlling the growth of Federal advisory committees through an annual agency review and planning process. The Circular requires agencies to report annually to OMB and the General Services Administration's (GSA) Committee Management Secretariat on initiatives to reduce existing committees, terminate statutory committees and plans to establish new advisory committees during the next fiscal year. OMB and GSA are responsible for reviewing and approving agency plans and setting agency advisory committee ceilings that maintain the President's government-wide advisory committee reduction goal established through Executive Order 12838.","action":"Issuance of OMB Circular A-135, ``Management of Federal Advisory Committees'' dated October 5, 1994.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET","name":"Management and Budget Office","id":280,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/management-and-budget-office","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/280","parent_id":null,"slug":"management-and-budget-office"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/1994/10/26/94-26457.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":null,"comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":null,"disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Federal Register: October 26, 1994"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"94-26457","effective_on":null,"end_page":0,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":null,"html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1994/10/26/94-26457/circular-a-135-management-of-federal-advisory-committees","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/94-26457?publication_date=1994-10-26","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-1994-10-26/94-26457/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":1,"page_views":{"count":165,"last_updated":"2026-07-28 00:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":null,"presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"1994-10-26","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/1994/10/26/94-26457.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":0,"subtype":null,"title":"Circular A-135, ``Management of Federal Advisory Committees''","toc_doc":null,"toc_subject":null,"topics":[],"type":"Uncategorized Document","volume":59}
