Background

The functions of the Executive Committee are to assist the MDH in preparing issues for discussion by the SCHSAC; to assist SCHSAC in managing its business efficiently; and, under special circumstances, to act in the name of the SCHSAC (subject to formal approval by SCHSAC at its next meeting). The Executive Committee is responsible for preparing the annual SCHSAC work plan.

The Executive Committee briefly meets prior to the full SCHSAC meetings to make final changes to the agenda and to discuss related issues. Additional meetings are scheduled throughout the year, as needed.
