The Prefect convenes the Departmental Commission for Intercommunal Cooperation. The notice is sent to the members of the relevant panel in writing and at their home addresses at least five days before the day of the meeting, accompanied by the agenda and an explanatory report for each item on the agenda. In urgent cases, this period may be reduced to three days.
Panels of the departmental commissions for inter-municipal cooperation may meet in inter-departmental formation when the projects examined concern communes belonging to different departments. The interdepartmental committee is chaired jointly by the prefects of these departments. The provisions of articles R. 5211-35 to R. 5211-40 apply to it.
