Bus/Financial - Accounting / Annual Report
German term or phrase: Personenidentität
Is it possible that this simply means "personal identity"? The members have personal identities?

Der Aufsichtsrat hat aus dem Kreis seiner Mitglieder drei Ausschüsse gebildet, den Personalausschuss, den Ausschuss nach § 27 (3) MitbestG und den Prüfungsausschuss. Bei den Mitgliedern dieser Ausschüsse besteht Personenidentität. Der Personalausschuss entscheidet über den Inhalt der Dienstverträge mit den Vorstandsmitgliedern und macht Vorschläge für die Bestellung von Vorstandsmitgliedern, welche das Plenum des Aufsichtsrates bestellt.

Kim, it just means that they are always the same
Explanation:
persons in the committees i.e. The committees are composed of the same persons. You might want to phrase that to suit the rest of your translation. Hope this is of help.

Es gibt noch den Ausdruck *in Personalunion* i.e. interlocking directorates, vielleicht kann man das irgendwie benutzen.
