Scope and content
The business of the Committee was complementary to that of the NRTC, but focussing on "administrative problems" and the development of new overseas sources of supply. The few papers in the series deal with mineral resources, non-ferrous metals, timber and fibres. One, entitled Yugoslavia [DC (51)13, 28.8.51] deals with "the scale of assistance to be afforded to the Yugoslavian Government" and the country’s investment programme in the context of importing commodities and food from Yugoslavia.

In the minutes of the first meeting of this small committee, established under the auspices of the Lord President, SZ is listed as representing the Ministry of Defence; by the fifth meeting he has been assigned to the Lord President’s Office. These are the only minutes in the file.
