The formation of the Interagency Steering Committee to Review the U.S. International Air Transportation Policy was announced by the President on August 14, 1969. The Committee, under the leadership of the Department of Transportation, included representatives of the Departments of State, Justice, Commerce, Treasury, and Defense, as well as the Bureau of the Budget, the Civil Aeronautics Board, and the Council of Economic Advisers. The Committee was charged with reviewing U.S. policies in the field of international air transportation. It presented its findings to the President in the form of a Statement of International Air Transportation Policy who, in turn, announced them to the public on June 22, 1970.
