The contracts committee chooses the committee’s suppliers and service providers. It reports on these choices to the Committee at least once a year, in accordance…

The members of the Contracts Committee are appointed by the Social and Economic Committee from among its full members. The rules of procedure of the social and economic committee set out the committee’s operating procedures, the number of its members, the procedures for appointing them and their term of office.

The Contracts Committee draws up an annual activity report, which is appended to the report referred to in Article L. 2315-69.
