Documents are coded for the different Committees in accordance with their terms of reference and in-

structions given by the governing bodies from time to time.

In some cases a paper is coded to one Committee and reference made to one or more other Committees. The intention is to ensure that members of both (all) Committees receive copies in advance. The Chairmen concerned will agree as to presentation in the

Committees. Presentation of the same material in more than one Committee should be avoided.
