“During our recent agenda consultation, stakeholders suggested potential improvements to enhance the efficiency of the interpretive process and more effectively utilize the resources of this talented group of professionals,” FASB chair Richard Jones said in a statement. “Based on that feedback, we revised the EITF’s membership makeup and operating procedures in ways aimed at achieving those objectives and maintaining the transparency that is critical to the group’s process.”
FASB plans to host an EITF meeting in June.
