Twelve government agency representatives and six private sector representatives comprise the Committee.

The aim is to promote the judicious and efficient use of fuel in the road transport sector through awareness campaigns in major cities and municipalities around the country. A regional, city or municipal chapter was established to provide continuity of the programme in the locality. The local chapter was headed by a representative from the transport association. The programme targets a 10% reduction in fuel consumption.
