Committees

The Board of Directors relied on six committees: the Executive Committee, the Audit Committee, the Construction Committee, the Environment and Security Committee, the Governance and Human Resources Committee and the Planning and development Committee. 

They act in compliance with Board decisions and ensure that the organization meets its legal obligations in the day-to-day management of its operations. 

The Board of Directors is also supported by a Community Advisory Committee to support the advancement of various issues to improve air services and airport infrastructures. Members of this committee attended regular construction site visits throughout the year. They in turn became key advocates of the airport terminal project and services offered.
