Hi Kirill, my understanding is that Affcom functions under the Legal
department, much like the Individual Engagement Grants Committee functions
under the Grantmaking department. Is that so, and if not, which department
is responsible for Affcom.

Those two committees are completely different. Affcom is a self operating committee created by the board and, as far as know, reports directly to the board while IEG is a committee created by staff (in this case the Grantmaking group) and they, understandably, run it (I have no knowledge of how much community members like yourself help do so of course and it certainly wouldn't surprise me if it is also partially or mostly self operating).
