This sub-series consist of a number of general files, in folders marked "Secret", dealing with meetings of various committees in DSS; there is also a substantial run of the department's Operational Review Committee. (There are many memos here from N. Mulder, Dick's Chief of Staff, to the minister). As well, there are files related to several Cabinet Committees, such as Priority and Planning, Communications, Economic Policy, Privatization and Social Development (there is a much larger run of Cabinet Committees material in Series VI, Sub-series 1, Cabinet Committees and Confidences).

These records are comprised of correspondence, cabinet materials, memos, reports, transmittal slips, circular material and some print materials. The Operational Review Committee records highlight departmental decisions regarding proposals, and approval of programs and projects, as well as monitor them -- they reflect a core activity of the department's operations. The records of the Cabinet committees represented here deal with major matters of procurement, trade, relationship with other departments, globalization and free trade. Overall, this sub-series details fiscal management in DSS, the department's connection to Cabinet, the formulation and execution of procurement policy, complaint resolution in major DSS contracts and the departmental relationship with Treasury Board and other departments.
