Parliamentary Committees are small groups formed within a parliament to focus on specific areas of policy, legislation, or administration. These committees play a crucial role in examining proposed laws, scrutinizing government actions, and gathering evidence from experts and the public. They help ensure that the legislative process is thorough and informed.
Members of these committees are usually drawn from different political parties, allowing for diverse perspectives. Committees can be permanent, like standing committees, or temporary, like select committees, which are established for specific investigations. Their findings and recommendations are often presented to the full parliament for further consideration.
