Governance

Executive Committee

The FSRDC Program is a signature initiative of the Interagency Council on Statistical Policy (ICSP). The mission of the FSRDC program is to support research and educate future scholars, support a more coordinated Federal statistical system, improve the quality and utility of Federal statistics, and encourage openness and transparency in Federal statistics through increased access to Federal statistical micro-level data, and promote the linkage of micro-level data from different agencies.

The FSRDC Executive Committee (the FSRDC EXCOM) provides strategic vision and guidance; makes policy decisions that resolve interagency issues, capitalize on new opportunities, and strive for consensus; guides transformation and provides executive sponsorship of the FSRDC program.

Charter

The FSRDC EXCOM was established in July 2017. The revised EXCOM charter was approved most recently by FSRDC EXCOM members and by the ICSP in June 2024.

Members

The FSRDC EXCOM charter determines that membership will be comprised of:

  • At least five but no more than seven representatives of the participating federal agencies (i.e., the voting members); each representative shall be the statistical agency head, or senior leader of the agency as determined by the agency head;
