Mr. Adamsonasked the Minister of Information how many advisory or consultative committees are now functioning in 128W his Department; how they are appointed; whether they comprise representatives of organisations or corporate bodies; and whether they act in a voluntary capacity or otherwise?
Mr. CooperThere are several advisory and consultative committees associated with the Ministry. Steps are being taken to ascertain their usefulness with a view to some revision of both their number and constitution. A more precise answer is not possible at this time.
