Their role is to examine how effectively these programs support people, hold the government accountable,and recommend improvements. They gather evidence from experts, stakeholders, and the public, then produce reports to inform Parliament and influence policy decisions. Essentially, they ensure that welfare and pension systems operate fairly, efficiently, and in the best interest of those they serve.
