Read a random definition: incurable insanity

A quick definition of ad hoc committee:

An ad hoc committee is a group of people who come together for a specific purpose or task. It is a smaller group within a larger organization that investigates, oversees, or takes action on a particular issue. For example, a school might form an ad hoc committee to plan a special event or address a specific problem. The committee is temporary and disbands once the task is completed.

A more thorough explanation:

Ad Hoc Committee

An ad hoc committee is a temporary group created by an organization or assembly to investigate, consider, or take action on a specific issue or problem. It is not a permanent committee and is dissolved once its task is completed.

  • A school board creates an ad hoc committee to investigate the feasibility of implementing a new curriculum.
  • A city council forms an ad hoc committee to study the impact of a proposed development on the local environment.

Ad hoc committees are formed to address specific issues or problems that require immediate attention. They are not permanent and are dissolved once their task is completed. The examples illustrate how ad hoc committees are used in different settings to investigate and consider specific issues.
