Functions of Advisory Committee.

3.—(1) The functions of an Advisory Committee shall be to enquire into, and report to the Minister upon, charges made for gas by such one or more of the scheduled undertakers as may be specified in the warrant constituting it.

(2) An Advisory Committee shall report to the Minister not later than the date specified in that behalf in the warrant constituting it, and if it reports that the charges made for gas by any of the scheduled undertakers specified in the said warrant are unduly high owing to causes within the control of those undertakers or to undue labour costs, shall state whether in its opinion circumstances are such as to require the Minister to make an order under section 6 of this Act fixing the maximum charges that may be made for gas by those undertakers.
