Adviser calls on David Clark to name new appointees to code committee
Earlier this year the adviser wrote to Clark, pointing out that the committee had been operating in breach of its statutory requirements since July 2021 as it had only six members instead of the required seven.
As minister, Clark is required by law to appoint new members to maintain the statutory minimum.

Good Returns emailed committee chairman Angus Dale-Jones, who is travelling in Europe, asking for the names of the two appointees.
