The recent Cabinet approved definition of boards and committees is "those entities that have one or more external members who receive remuneration for their services (other than reimbursements or travel). The term 'external members' excludes anyone on the public payroll, all State Commonwealth and local government employees, current and retired judicial officers and employees of public academic institutions".
For the period 13 August 2009 - 3 March 2010 the Minister is advised:
(1)  Nil
(2)  Not applicable
NOTE
The above response is for the Drug and Alcohol Office, Mental Health Commission, Office of the Chief Psychiatrist and the Area Health Services' Mental Health Services.
