Committees

The Commissions and Working Groups are the “operational bodies” of the Association and are responsible for investigating issues of importance to the gas industry, evaluating initiatives to be proposed at the association level and drafting documents that represent the position of Proxigas.

Participation is restricted to representatives of member companies who have skills and operational experience consistent with the specific scope of activities of each Commission and Working Group.

The work is coordinated by Commission Chairs and managed with respect to association guidelines. Each Commission may be divided into Task Forces focused on specific issues.
