CGDA (Pen) The Committee has not been
mandated to invite or examine suggestions from the public. The time given for
the Committee to submit its report is also not adequate for this purpose.
Though
the views voiced can be examined separately, they would not require (?) the
Committee’s deliberations, esp. if they are related to anomalies already referred
to OMJC.
We
may inform MoD accordingly.
