Established by statute[edit]

"OSTP's continuing mission is set out in the National Science and Technology Policy, Organization, and Priorities Act of 1976 (Public Law 94-282)." This is what the official website says, but the article says this Council was established by Executive Order. There is a template in the article asking for secondary rather than primary sources, but I think we can rely on a US Government website for the fact that this Council was established by the statute cited. Someone should make the appropriate changes. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:45, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Separation of Structure section[edit]

The original "Structure" section in this article included a bunch of information that did not really belong under that heading (e.g. funding, member agencies, etc.). Therefore, I separated the "Structure" section based on the information it contained into component sections of: Membership, Committees, Funding, and Member Agencies.
