The appointment to the agency committee of the representatives of the categories of staff is the subject of an agreement between the representative trade union organisations concerned.
In the event that such agreement cannot be reached, the head of the labour inspection department, on receipt of a referral from the trade unions concerned or from the agency director, shall make the appointment. The decision of the head of the labour inspection department is taken no later than eight clear days from the date of referral.
The Committee is renewed every two years. The duties of representatives on the committee end on death, resignation, termination of the employment contract or dismissal during the term of office by all the representative trade union organisations concerned. If a representative changes category while remaining in the agency, he shall continue to represent the college for which he was appointed.
If, during the Committee’s term of office, one or more appointments increase the number of practitioners sitting on the Medical Committee, the number of seats allocated to the Committee is increased accordingly. The new seat or seats are allocated in accordance with the conditions set out in article D. 6431-23 and the new members of the committee are appointed in accordance with the provisions of the first two paragraphs of this article.
If, during the Committee’s term of office, one or more vacancies occur reducing the number of practitioners sitting on the Medical Committee, the number of Agency Committee members taking part in deliberations at the joint meetings of the Committee and the Commission provided for in article L. 6431-15 is reduced accordingly, in the reverse order to that in which they were appointed under the first two paragraphs of this article. However, this provision must not prevent at least one representative from each college from taking part in the deliberations of the joint formation.
