The Policy Development Committee was an Ad Hoc Committee of the Board created in October 2013 to develop new policies and review existing policies as directed by the Board and to make recommendations to the Board for its approval.
As a result of the November 2015 Strategic Planning Session, the Board of Directors changed the name of the committee to the Governance Committee and broadened its mandate to include strategic plan implementation, risk management and Board and senior staff education.
