UTA Committee

Committees, boards and working groups are established by the Executive Council to assist the Executive Council in the realization of its current strategic priorities and to provide assistance and advice on matters pertaining to their respective areas of expertise. They do not make decisions, but rather provide recommendations to the Executive Board for review and approval. They review the terms of reference of committees at least every five years.
