When the committees are working on certain bills they usually organise public hearing and invite all knowledgeable and concerned parties to the event to get their views regarding the drafted laws.

Committee meetings will normally be open but may be closed when the matters under discussion relate to national security, conduct of members, or evidence and testimony which the Committee feels should be heard confidentially.

Somalia House of Senate is constitutionally tasked to protect the interests of Federal Member States. In doing so, the house committees holds consultative meeting with representatives from FMS that has relation with bill on hand and to attend the public hearing events.

The committees also give chance to the vulnerable groups like women, people with disabilities, minority groups and other voiceless people of the Nation to have their inputs and finally produce well-crafted and more inclusive laws.
