The White House opioid commission will reportedly miss for the second time its deadline for filing an interim report detailing recommendations to combat the epidemic.

CBS News first reported the notice and delayed report on Thursday.

The Office of National Drug Control Policy is scheduled on Friday to publish a notice in the Federal Register that addresses the missed deadline, as well as the new date for it to issue its report.

President Trump created the Commission on Combating Drug Addiction and the Opioid Crisis in March through an executive order, and tapped New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) to head the panel.

The aim of the commission was to review the federal government's response to the ongoing opioid crisis and come up with an interim report that includes recommendations on how to fight the growing epidemic.

The report was due 90 days after Trump issued the order, by June 27. The commission missed the initial deadline and set a new date of July 17 for its report to be covered during a conference call.

But the new notice scheduled for release on Friday signals that the interim report will be delayed for a second time, with the document saying "the teleconference will be held on Monday, July 31st at 4 pm EST."

A final report detailing the commission's recommended actions and solutions is due to the president on the first day of October.

A spokesman for Christie did not immediately respond to CBS News's request for comment.
