SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Educational Research Policy and

Board works collaboratively with the Assistant Secretary for the Office

with respect to a long-term agenda for educational research, 
development, and dissemination, and to provide advice and assistance to 
the Assistant Secretary in administering the duties of the Office.
    The meeting of the Executive Committee is closed to the public 
under the authority of section 10(d) of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act (Pub. L. 92-463; 5 U.S.C. Appendix 2) and under exemptions (2) and

    The Committee will discuss the process of the selection of an 
Executive Director of the Board and the personal qualifications of 
candidates for the position. These discussions relate solely to the 
internal personnel rules and practices of the Board and will disclose 
information of a personal nature where disclosure would constitute a 
clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy if conducted in open 
session.
    A summary of the activities at the closed session and related 
matters which are informative to the public consistent with the policy 
of Title 5 U.S.C. 552b(c) will be available to the public within 14 
days of the meeting.
    The public is being given less than the required 15 days' notice 
because of the difficulty in accommodating the schedules of all members 
of the Executive Committee,which must complete its recommendations 
prior to the next full Board meeting on November 30.
    Records are kept of all Board proceedings, and are available for 
public inspection at the office of the National Educational Research
