This World Bank Institute’s learning module which is a part of the Parliaments and HIV/ AIDS e*learning course, explores the role of parliamentary committees in reviewing and amending legislation with a particular focus on HIV/AIDS. It discusses the rational for creating specific committees responsible for HIV/AIDS as well as the need for a multi-sectoral approach whereby other parliamentary committees, such as those responsible for trade, healthcare, international development and so forth, should also be involved in scrutinizing the impact of legislation and policies on HIV/AIDS.
