| Membership |
The Chamber determines the number of members and the number of posts allocated to each parliamentary group for the duration of the legislature. The Bureau of each of the committees is elected for the duration of the session. |

| Relations with external bodies |
Committees may invite various bodies to its meetings or communicate in writing with them, but always through the President of the Chamber of Deputies. |
