The Committee's members, usually Ministers of Finance, are appointed in turn for successive periods of two years by one of the countries or groups of countries represented on the Bank's or the Fund's Board of Executive Directors. The Committee is required to advise and report to the Boards of Governors of the Bank and the Fund on all aspects of the broad questions of the transfer of real resources to developing countries, and to make suggestions for consideration by those concerned regarding the implementation of its conclusions.
The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and its affiliate, the International Development Association (IDA), together constitute the World Bank. The International Finance Corporation (IFC) and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) are other affiliates of the IBRD.

Foreword
The Development Committee held its 50th meeting in Washington, D.C. on April 27, 1995.
There was one main item on the agenda: Financing of Infrastructure in Developing Countries. The Committee based its discussion on a joint issues paper, on reports prepared by the World Bank and the IMF and on other supplementary papers.
The main agenda item gave the Committee an opportunity to focus on the provision of finance for infrastructure in developing countries which have been investing an average of 4% of their GNP, about $200 billion a year, in infrastructure. Ministers acknowledged that the present and future demand for basic infrastructure services is unlikely to be met by current public sector methodscharacterized in many developing countries by inefficient operation, unresponsiveness to users and poor financial management. The Committee recognized that improvement will require developing countries to have more business-like management, charge realistic prices for services rendered, be more attentive to maintenance, and encourage more private sector involvement in the provision of infrastructure and in its financing. Ministers agreed that these reforms will promote the development efforts of developing countries. The poor stand to gain directly and quickly from better delivery of infrastructure services which, in turn, will also contribute to the improvement of environmental conditions. The Committee urged the donor countries to help the poorest countries in this area and asked that the multilateral institutions to play a catalytic role in raising funds from a wider range of private sector sources.
