As per Standing Orders, the Chief Justice is required to appoint a judge and a professional mutually agreed upon by the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition. Additionally, the Chairperson of the National Police Commission must be appointed as a mandatory member of the committee.

The investigation is expected to begin immediately following the formal establishment of the committee.
