A Consul can attend more than one committee if s/he is not a member of Application Committee or Planning and Budgeting Committee. Members of those committees can not participate in any other committees. On the other hand, s/he does not have to work for a committee either. Number of members of each committee is determined by the proposal of the Advisory Council and the approval of the Assembly. Sub committees are established according to the issue that the committee receives. Only Public Economic Enterprises (PEEs) Committee has constant sub committees that are specifically responsible for a group of PEEs.
Committee meetings are open to all Consuls, Corcillum members, and other Government representatives as observers. Observers can talk in the committees but can not make amendments proposals or vote. Every Consul (and parliamentary magistrate) can read the reports of the committees.  NGOs can attend the committee meetings upon the invitation of the committee therefore volunteer, individual, or public participation is not available. Media, but not the visual media, can attend the meetings. The media representatives are usually the parliamentary staff of the media institutions. The committees can prevent the attendance of the media with a joint decision.
There are three main types of committees: Consular committee, Investigative committee, International committee.
