The Committee is being asked to produce an early interim report to facilitate forward planning in fields which are dependent on the use of scientific man-power. Later the Committee will be asked to make recommendations for the establishment of permanent machinery for carrying out surveys into the best use of the scientific resources of Britain in the national interest. The Committee is constituted as follows: Sir Alan Barlow (temporary chairman), Sir Edward Appleton, Prof. P. M. S. Blackett, Mr. Geoffrey Crowther, Sir Alfred Egerton and Sir George Nelson.
