DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Federal Bureau of Investigation

 
Notice of Charter Renewal

    In accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee 
Act title 5, United States Code, Appendix, and Title 41, Code of 
Federal Regulations, Section 101-6.1015, with the concurrence of the 
Attorney General, I have determined that the continuance of the 
Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Advisory Policy Board 
(APB) is in the public interest. In connection with the performance of 
duties imposed upon the FBI by law, I hereby give notice of the renewal 
of the APB Charter, effective January 31, 2005.
    The APB provides me with general policy recommendations with 
respect to the philosophy, concept, and operational principles of the 
various criminal justice information systems managed by the FBI's CJIS 
Division.
    The APB includes representatives from state and local criminal 
justice agencies; members of the judicial, prosecutorial, and 
correctional segments of the criminal justice community; a 
representative of federal agencies participating in the CJIS systems; 
and representatives of criminal justice professional associations 
(i.e., the American Probation and Parole Association, American Society 
of Crime Laboratory Directors, International Association of Chiefs of 
Police, National District Attorneys Association, National Sheriffs' 
Association, Major Cities Chiefs Association, Major County Sheriffs' 
Association, and a representative from a national professional 
association representing the courts or court administrators nominated 
by the Conference of Chief Justices). All members of the APB are 
appointed by the FBI Director.
    The APB functions solely as an advisory body in compliance with the 
provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act. The Charter has been 
filed in accordance with the provisions of the Act.

    Dated: March 21, 2005.
Robert S. Mueller, III,
Director.
