Committees Clause Samples

The Committees clause establishes the formation, composition, and authority of committees within an organization or under an agreement. It typically outlines how committees are created, who may serve as members, the scope of their responsibilities, and the procedures for meetings and decision-making. For example, a contract may specify that a steering committee will oversee project progress and resolve disputes. This clause ensures that there is a clear structure for collaborative decision-making and delegation of specific tasks, thereby promoting efficient governance and accountability.
