The following are the functions of the PDG Advisory Committee:
- Long range planning
- Strategic planning
- Issuing advisory papers on request – normally in the form of tasks delegated by the incumbent District Governor
- Individual mentorship of District officers – is left to the discretion of each PDG
- Demonstrating support of the current District Team– the Committee does not fulfil a “Big Brother” role, it acts rather as an advisory one, supplying advice and recommendations where needed
