A National Commission is a government body established to investigate, study, or address specific issues of national importance. These commissions often focus on areas such as human rights, education, or economic development. They gather information, conduct hearings, and provide recommendations to improve policies and practices. National Commissions can be temporary or permanent, depending on their purpose. They typically consist of experts, stakeholders, and representatives from various sectors. Examples include the National Commission on Human Rights and the National Commission for Women, which aim to protect and promote the rights of citizens in their respective areas.
