The activities of the Presidium and
the Executive Bureau were planned
three months in advance (for each
quarter of the year) as was the preparation
of the materials to be submitted
for discussion and approval. The
plans were drawn up by the Department
of Administration and Network
Planning on the basis of suggestions
made by members of the OCOG-80, its
Presidium and the Executive Bureau,
by department chiefs, and by the
participating ministries, government
agencies and public organisations.
The quarterly plans were actually
lists of topics for consideration by the
Presidium and by the Executive
Bureau. Deadlines for submission of
the materials on each question to be
discussed by the meeting were indicated
and persons responsible for the
preparation of the materials and
speakers were named. The type of
materials to be submitted had been
established specifically by a directive
from the President. Each question
under discussion required a short
memorandum on the subject and a
draft resolution of the Presidium or
Executive Bureau containing concrete
decisions and assignments and listing
those responsible for their execution.
These preliminary lists of main
topics were considered at the meetings
of the Presidium and the Executive
Bureau. When approved, the lists
were presented to the President for
signing.
