FACTORS TO CONSIDER
HOW MANY COMMITTEES CAN WE HANDLE EFFICIENTLY?
POLICY IS ALREADY SCRUTINISED IN LEGCO'S MOTION DEBATES AND QUESTION TIME.
HOW SHOULD TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR COMMITTEES BE WRITTEN?
FLEXIBILITY AND EVENESS OF WORKLOAD.
WHO SHOULD BE MEMBERS OF COMMITTEE SCRUTINISING POLICY?
EXCO MEMBERS WHO ARE NOT MEMBERS OF LEGCO?
EXCO MEMBERS WHO ARE MEMBERS OF LEGCO? IF SO, SHOULD THEY BE ALLOWED TO TAKE THE CHAIR.
FACTORS TO CONSIDER
COULD EXCO MEMBERS WHO ARE NOT MEMBERS OF LEGCO BE COOPTED TO SIT ON LEGCO POLICY COMMITTEES?
