Bill procedure. what's the difference between a standing committee and subcommittees?

Question

For this immigration bill I am presenting. the standing committee that has jusrisdiction on subject matters is the Homeland security. But what do subcommittees do? what's their job why is it important?

Answer 1

A subcommittee is -- as the name implies -- a subset of the full, standing committee. Not all full committees have subcommittees. And the purposes and degrees of importance of subcommittees varies a great deal from one full committee to another.

Generally speaking, a subcommittee will probably work more than the full committee at writing the specific details of a bill.

Answer 2

Well a standing committee is given juridiction over matters it is set to invesigate.A subcommittee is set the task of investigation.Thier recommendations are passed on to a higher committee,to be evaluated
