Audit Committees in Provincial Administrative Law

Provincial audit committees handle objections to provincial decisions, analogous to objection committees but specifically for provinces, regulated in the Provincial Act and the General Administrative Law Act.

Specific Powers

  • Extensive investigation: Field inventories for spatial planning.
  • Involvement of experts: Environmental scientists and planners.
  • Advice to the Executive Board of the Province: Binding in some ordinances.

Differences with Municipal Committees

Provincial committees handle larger-scale cases, such as nature management. They report annually to the Provincial States. Efficiency is higher due to specialised members.

This system decentralises adjudication and fits with regional autonomy.
