Committees are permanent workgroups formed by senators who are in charge of evaluating bills related to a specific matter of government affairs. These proposals are debated upon and subject to regular modifications in order to draft a final proposal that would be sent to a major hearing in the Senate. If the bill is approved by the Senate, it will then pass to the House of Representatives for its approval.
