Commonwealth Heads of Government, at their meeting in New Delhi in 1983, endorsed a recommendation from Commonwealth Employment and Labour Ministers that a Commonwealth Working Group be set up to examine member countries' experience in managing technological change. The Group, which was chaired by Prof. M. G. K. Menon of India, submitted its report, “Technological Change: Enhancing the Benefits”, to Commonwealth Governments in August 1985. It was made available to the wider international community during the following month, and considered at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in The Bahamas in October.
