History
At its 65th, 70th and 75th sessions, the Executive Board formed ad hoc committees to study the functions, responsibilities and methods of work of the organs of UNESCO. The terms of reference of these commissions (with names that varied slightly) ended when the report was submitted to the Board at a specified session. In 1967, one of the recommendations of the Special Committee was for the Board to delegate certain preparatory tasks to a small subsidiary body to be created. During its 77th session, the Board voted to establish the Special Committee for such work on an experimental basis. It was established as the permanent Special Committee in a vote at the 81st session. The Chairpersons of the ad hoc committees were: R. Barón Castro (1961-1962); H. Eek (1965-1966); M. Smieton (1967-1968).
