One of our first activities was to set out our vision and develop a mission statement. We set these out as follows:
Our vision is to be responsive and accountable to the public by acting with integrity to contribute to the achievement of the 14th Legislative Assembly's vision.
Our mission will be to take purposeful action to support, question or oppose government initiatives and to hold government accountable; we will also propose that government take action where appropriate and in the public interest.
The committee then set out its priorities, identifying areas in which we planned to take action.
