committee-like is being talked about, telling X or Z what to do is not the
purpose. Instead it's to get X and Z to (grudgingly) meet at Y. I agree that
the general scope of this needs to be clarified, however. If it's being
talked about in the same vein as the global arbitration committee, there are
problems (the same problems, in fact).
