- An EMFF Committee, under the Comitology Regulation. The EMFF Committee delivers opinions on draft implementing acts.
- An EMFF Expert Group, to provide advice and expertise to the Commission on the preparation of legislative proposals and policy initiatives, the preparation of delegated acts and the implementation of EU legislation.
