The core task for each of the committees will be to provide the Government with a structured set of inputs for a customised industrial framework/policy for their specific sector keeping in mind Punjab's unique industrial eco system along with structural and fiscal context. For this the committee should examine policies and frameworks of all other relevant states in the country and thus develop a 'best-in-class' policy framework for Punjab. The committees shall submit these recommendations in writing by 1st October 2025, he added.
Each committee will be having a Chairperson and some members from the industry. However more members may be added at the discretion of the Government. Members will be diverse in size, scale, and geography to ensure all views are tabled during discussions. Members will also represent different sub- segments of the overall sector, he said.
Secretariat support to each committee shall be provided by the Member-Secretary of the Committee as noted above, who shall also be in-charge of organizing the meetings of the Committee and preparing the minutes. General Manager District Industries Centre (GM DIC) from Department of Industries & Commerce and the relevant Sector Officer from Punjab Bureau of Investment Promotion (PBIP) shall assist the Committee with relevant administrative support, as necessary.
