Summary |
The National Planning Committee, appointed in 1938, began its work early in 1939. After defining the nature of a National Plan, and determining the nature and scope of the work entrusted to them, the Committee issued an elaborate and comprehensive Questionnaire which was subsequently supplemented by specific details. Twenty-nine Sub-Committees, formed into eight groups, were set up with special terms of reference to deal with all parts and aspects of the national life and work in accordance with a predetermined Plan.
After some unavoidable delay in getting replies to the Questionnaire, the Sub-Committees began their work, and submitted Reports,-some of them Final, some Interim,-which were considered at the Plenary Sessions of the Parent Committee in 1940.
