Expert Committee on Questions of Population and Racial Policy

The Expert Committee on Questions of Population and Racial Policy (German: Sachverständigen-Beirat für Bevölkerungsfragen und Rassenpolitik[1]) was a Nazi Germany committee formed on 2 June 1933[1] that planned Nazi racial policy.

[2] The committee was organized by Interior Minister Wilhelm Frick,[2] and brought together many important Nazi figures on racial theory, including Ernst Rudin, Alfred Ploetz, Arthur Gutt, Heinrich Himmler, Fritz Thyssen, Fritz Lenz, Friedrich Burgdorfer, Walther Darre, Hans F. K. Günther, Charlotte von Hadeln, Bodo Spiethoff, Paul Schultze-Naumburg, Gerhard Wagner, and Baldur von Schirach.

[1][2] The Nazi's expert committee replaced the old Reichsausschuss fur Bevolkerungsfragen, established by Frick's predecessor, Carl Severing.

Germany at that time had been facing an increasingly older population, and Jews were immigrating in large numbers.

He also warned the number of "genetically diseased" were growing because of a lack of a government racial policy.
