1945

ORDER.—Ordered that the resolution be published in the Calcutta Gazette and that copies be forwarded to the members of the Committee and the Departments of the Secretariat. [...] Again the treatment of one of the chief rivers of the Province involves not only the Department of River Utilisation but also the Department of Commerce Labour and Industries(the provision of hydro-electric power) the Department of Health. [...] We propose therefore the creation of a Development Board presided over by the Chief Secretary who would become the Civil Service Head of the Chief Mihister's Department and consisting of the Secretaries of the Development Departments together with the Secretary of the Finance Department. [...] While remaining ultimately.responsible to the Chief Minister for all the functions assigned to the Chief Minister's Department he should be relieved to the maximum extent possible of the day-tday administration of the Department the control though the Organisation and Methods and Establishment Divisions of the business of Government and also of the day-to-day control of appointments. [...] The present position is in our judgment thoroughly nsatisfactory both from the point of view of the District Officer iimself as well as from the point of view of efficiency of the 1overnment machine and the welfare of the people in the District.
