Excerpt
1. INTRODUCTION The fifteenth meeting of the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) of the Diarrhoea] Disease Control Programme (CDD) was held in Geneva on 20-23 April 1994. Dr J. Tulloch, Director, opened the meeting and explained that it was being convened later this year to permit the executive committees of the CDD and the Programme for Control of Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) TAGS to consider together the draft report of the External Review Group entided Evaluation of the World Health Organization's Programmes for Control of Diurrhoenl Diseases and Respimtoiy infections in Children. Comments on the draft report would be conveyed to the Meeting of Interested Parties in June by the TAG Chairman, Dr Sverre 0. Lie, on behalf of the CDD TAG. Dr Tulloch thanked the four CDD TAG members present for agreeing to constitute an executive committee. The Report of the 1993 TAG meeting identified certain topics on which the TAG requested further information. Particular emphasis was therefore placed on these issues with special presentations on: assessing programme impact on mortality; developing methods for monitoring and supervision to ensure better performance of health workers; findings of focused programme reviews conducted to date; a joint WHO/UNICEF policy on ORS production and procurement; and development of the training course on the integrated management of childhood illness. Professor Sverre 0. Lie was invited to preside over the meeting and Professor John Hamilton, the retiring Chairman, was commended on, and thanked for, his past guidance and support.
