    Historique

    The Advisory Committee to the Minister of Lands and Forests was established in 1951 by Order-in-Council 383/51. The Committee had its origins in the report of the Royal Commission on Forestry (1947) which recommended that an advisory committee be established to provide "reasonable continuity in forest policy when changes of government or even changes of Ministers occur, and to guard against possible unwise or precipitate Department action." In 1948, the Forestry Act was amended to permit the appointment of such a committee to advise on forest policy. On December 1, 1950 the Premier of Ontario announced that a committee would be formed, and an organisational meeting was held on December 28, 1950.

    On February 22, 1951 Order-in-Council 383/51 formally established the Committee. It consisted of eight members and a chair drawn from education, the building industry, finance, forest engineering, labour, the lumber, mining and pulp and paper industries, and railways. The Committee was reappointed by order-in-council on an annual basis.

    In 1972 when the Ministry of Natural Resources replaced the Department of Lands and Forests, the Committee was renamed the Advisory Committee to the Minister of Natural Resources. The Committee ceased to exist in 1978.
