Federal Advisory Committee Database Act

This bill requires federal agencies to submit standardized information about all their advisory committees to a central database managed by the Committee Management Secretariat. It mandates collection of specific details including committee names, charters, membership (with ethics designations), meeting records, costs, and recommendations, which must be published annually on a public GSA website in machine-readable format. The law directly affects all federal agencies operating advisory committees by requiring them to report this data consistently. Key provisions include creating uniform reporting requirements and ensuring public access to historical committee data for transparency. The bill does not change committee functions but standardizes how their activities are documented and shared.
