Following agency updates, the Council will receive panel presentations on complex rehabilitation acquisition; air transportation; annual required ethics training; a panel presentation on communication access; and a public comment session. Following unfinished business, the meeting will adjourn, to be followed by a public reception, providing attendees an opportunity to talk with presidentially and congressionally appointed Council Members and full-time professional staff from the National Council on Disability.
