Finance Committee

The Finance Committee is composed of all PLC members, except the
President. The Chairman and the Deputy Chairman are elected from
among its members. It scrutinises and approves public expenditure
proposals presented by the Administration.

There are two subcommittees under the Finance Committee: the
Establishment Subcommittee and the Public Works Subcommittee. The
Establishment Subcommittee examines and makes recommendations to
the Finance Committee on the government's proposals for the creation,
redeployment, and deletion of directorate posts, the creation of
directorate-level consultancy positions for periods lasting more than 12
months, and for changes to the structure of civil service grades and
ranks. The Public Works Subcommittee examines and makes
recommendations to the Finance Committee on the government's
expenditure proposals under the Capital Works Reserve Fund for projects
in the public works programme and building projects carried out by or on
behalf of subvented organisations.
