417.15. The procedure governing the election and appointment of members of the supervisory committee and their terms of office are determined by a by-law made by the department heads at a general meeting called for that purpose.
The by-law must prescribe that the composition of the committee is to ensure equitable representation of the institutions that operate a hospital centre and have their head offices in the agency’s area of jurisdiction, and that a member who loses the status of department head may nevertheless complete the unexpired portion of the member’s term on the supervisory committee. The by-law shall come into force after being approved by the agency’s board of directors.
