' Ad hoc Committees
159. In order to make the process meaningful, banks are advised to associate non-officials in the Ad hoc Committees. Considering the progress made by the Ad hoc Committees constituted by banks and the need for taking appropriate action in redesigning procedures and practices, the currency of these Ad hoc Committees has been extended for a further period of six months. The Reserve Bank accords highest priority to the service of common persons. It expects that the bank Boards would take this opportunity to streamline their procedures and processes towards fulfilling customers’ expectations in terms of transparent and efficient service. '
