The committee headed by Premadasa is expected to discuss issues in various fields. It will also focus on combating corruption and fraud, setting up procedures for exemplary governance as well as providing solutions to issues faced by various fields of concern. The inaugural meeting was attended by representatives of the Government Radiological Technologists Association, the Association of Government Pharmacists, the Association of Medical Professionals for Civil Rights and the Institute of Health Professionals.
