Who appoints committees?
Correct Answer:
The president.
Explanation:
The key idea is who has the formal role to form groups that will study issues, draft proposals, or oversee specific tasks. In many organizations and parliamentary setups, the leader at the top assigns committees to handle different areas, select members with the right expertise, and set the group’s remit and timeline. The president, as the head of the body, typically has that authority to appoint committees and shape their mandate. The secretary mainly handles administrative tasks like notices and minutes, not choosing committee members. The vice president’s role is to assist and step in when needed, rather than leading appointments. In some systems the speaker may appoint committees, but in this context the appointed authority is the president.
