agree NewCal: Yes, for sure.
8 mins
  -> Thanks
neutral Tony M: Would only work if we knew for sure there was something specific being followed up.
21 mins
  -> that's why confidence level 3 was selected. It seemed to me that this is pretty common to have a follow-up committe to ascertain implementation of agreements or prepare reporst regarless of assignments
neutral Angela Dickson: follow-up would only really be relevant if this were about hospitals - and I don't think it is
23 mins
  -> Angela, perhaps in this conext that we dont know much about. Not necessarily hospitals I believe. What are the functions of this committee?

supervising committee

Explanation:
Hello,

This is a committee which monitors and oversees (handles) the matter at hand.

You could say "monitoring committee", but I prefer "supervising committee."

That said, I've seen "Monitoring/Supervising Committee."

I hope this helps.
