    Committees and Staff The services described in the Report remained the responsibility of the Health Committee, apart from those referred to in Part IX which were under the control of the Education Committee. Consequent upon the transfer of some functions to the Social Services Committee, the structure of the Health Committee and its sub-committees was reconsidered and it was decided to disband the two standing sub-committees (General and Nursing), leaving the whole of the Committee’s functions to be exercised in future by the Committee itself; the number of co-opted members serving on the Committee was reduced from 17 to two. The Executive Sub- Committee was retained to advise on policy and to deal with matters requiring immediate consideration. The names of the members serving on the Health and Education Committees are recorded at Appendix A; those of the principal members of your staff appear at Appendix B. Acknowledgements In an atmosphere of growing uncertainty, I am more than normally grateful to every member of the staff who has performed efficiently and with kindness during 1971. Preparations for change have thrown additional testing burdens particularly on the more senior members of the Depart¬ ment’s staff. Throughout the year, the support and encouragement of the members of the authority have contributed greatly to the many elements of the services described in the Report.
