They adopt non-legislative reports, organise hearings with experts and scrutinise other EU bodies and institutions. Parliament can set up sub-committees and special committees to deal with specific issues. Each committee elects a chair and up to four vice-chairs for a two and a half year mandate.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12 col-xl-3 position-sticky h-100"> <div
