The committee is composed of seven subcommittees: the Planning Committee, Citizen Sovereignty Committee, Industrial Economy Committee, Science and Technology Committee, Urban Space Committee, Culture and Tourism Committee, and Health and Welfare Committee. A total of 20 experts are participating, and each subcommittee may also include working members and special members, so the scale of the committee is expected to expand further.
