When is a Board a Board, and when is a Board not really a Board?

In Bill 35 The Public Schools Finance Board Amendment and the Public Schools Amendment Act, the NDP are emasculating the Public Schools Finance Board and replacing it with an in-house committee of three deputy ministers. The NDP are calling the committee of three a Board, but it is so only in name. Decisions will be made under the cloak of secrecy. It will be a Board only in name, but it will clearly function more like a committee of three which makes internal decisions.
