fourteenth member was a representative from the general public. The purpose of the committee

epidemics in the future time. Also the the committee was to find the helpful researches on
energy, weapons and others that can be advanced for the betterment of the state.
The impacts of the committee
The committee as it was to investigate a very awful maltreatment, it was not known the extent to
which the experiments had affected the patients injected and therefore the government was to
know how far the results had affected her people and how it can be controlled in case of the
negative effects(Dragga,230)The government had also to know the right measures to use in order
to protect such happenings. The citizens too were not aware that the experiments were conducted
through the injection of such a substance to its members.
The investigation and the uncovering of such a treatment made the American citizens realize the
sense that the president Clinton was compassionate and caring in that he did it to protect both the
current and future generation againstofficials reatment and its consequences(Dragga,210)The
government also as per president's demand was that the findings to be disclosed to all citizens
and all the government officials. The transparency was aimed at creating awareness among all
citizens, business people, not profit-making groups and even medicine departments. The
awareness was to help the various groups or audience groups to understand their situation and f
any effect out of the experiments is suspected to be felt with so as to prevent the outbreak of
diseases that might be as a result of such experiments(Emmanuel,234).
On the findings, the committee had reported all the effects of nuclear bomb researchers, and all
maltreatment that had been contacted and the findings were genuinely and clearly presented to
the national officials and members (Dragga,198). The designated audience was appropriate in
that the awareness made to them was a hint to know how to deal with effects of some unrolled
effects of weapon researchers and injection of harmful substances to their bodies since most of
the operations were done secretly.

Conclusion
The research was successful and had a positive focus upon the nation and her people and also the
other neighboring nations who might have been affected by the researchers from the same nation
