[1994-2005]

The Joint Liaison Committee (JLC) was created in November 1994 to provide a forum for major donors, the Palestinian Authority and the Government of Israel to discuss policy issues and strategies and to promote stronger policy-level coordination. This Committee was chaired by the Palestinian Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation and played a major role in monitoring the Tripartite Action Plan agreed between Palestinians, Israelis and the donor community. JLC meetings were discontinued in September 2000 and the JLC was dissolved in 2005.
Composition:

Members: Norway, UNSCO, World Bank, EU, the United States, Japan and Israel, meeting with the Palestinian representatives to the LACC

[2002-2005]

[Established in July 2002 as a substructure of the Task Force on Palestinian Reform (TFPR) as donor bodies that interacted with Palestinian partners via a counterpart model. Seven RSGs were initially established: 
Civil Society (coordinated by Norway), Elections (coordinated by the EC and the US), Financial Accountability (coordinated by the EC and the IMF), Judicial and Rule of Law Reform (coordinated by EC and the Netherlands), Market Economics (coordinated by the US and the World Bank), Local Government (coordinated by Japan), and Public Administration and Civil Service Reform (coordinated by Germany and initially the World Bank – later UK). In 2003 the RSG on Civil Society was dissolved and instead a RSG on Legislative (coordinated by UNSCO and Germany) was established.]

[2002-2005]

The TFPR was established in July 2002 as a temporary mechanism to monitor and support the PA’s internal reform process, and guide the international donor community in its support for the Palestinian reform agenda. It reported to the Quartet. Day-to-day activities of the TFPR had been delegated to Reform Support Groups (RSGs), composed of donor representatives working in the oPt.

As a result of revamping the aid management structure in the oPt in December 2005 the TFPR was integrated into the AHLC at the international level. On the local level its functions have been carried over to the Governance Strategy Group (GSG).
