The Board has five (05) standing committees, to which various matters are delegated in accordance with their respective Charters. The Board also establishes committees on an ad hoc basis to deal with matters as and when deemed fit. In doing so, it specifies a remit, quorum and appropriate mix of executive and non-executive participation.
