The steering committee is headed by Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe, with another committee of experts to advice the committee on matters related to constitution making.

According to sources, the steering committee has requested the experts’ committee to submit a final document for drafting of the new Constitution. In the process, all previous drafts would be taken up for consideration.
