Environment Agency Wales - Committees

Committees

Environment Agency Wales has three statutory committees, each with their own responsibility and each contributing towards making Wales a better place for people and wildlife.

The committees were set up by Parliament under the Environment Act 1995. The committees are made up of external members who have been elected to stand on the committee because they have the relevant expertise.

Famous quotes containing the word committees:

    A committee is organic rather than mechanical in its nature: it is not a structure but a plant. It takes root and grows, it flowers, wilts, and dies, scattering the seed from which other committees will bloom in their turn.
    C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)

    Cry cry what shall I cry?
    The first thing to do is to form the committees:
    The consultative councils, the standing committees, select committees and sub-committees.
    One secretary will do for several committees.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    ... in the minds of search committees there is the lingering question: Can she manage the football coach?
    Donna E. Shalala (b. 1941)
