The Council also reviews the budgets of the Planning Commissions and proposes these budgets to Government.
The YLUPC consists of three members, each nominated by one of the three parties to the UFA: Canada, Yukon and CYFN. The Minister of Energy, Mines & Resources appoints the nominees. The members are not employees or agents of their nominating body.
