To achieve its mission, the Council conducts activities and provides services that fall into the following categories:

The Council conducts biomedical, social science, and public health research and helps build research capacities in developing countries.

The Council will conduct hearings.

For three days, the Council has been conducting rounds of informal polling in which members only "encourage" or "discourage" candidates.

The Council of State confirms the outcome of the election and, if necessary, conducts the drawing of lots.

The Council on Education of the Congregation conducted these surveys.

This is of particularly critical importance, because the Council conducts its proceedings on the basis of the English text.

In March, the European Council will conduct the mid-term review of the Lisbon process.

As we have said, the Council is conducting a very developed dialogue between the European Union and China.

The mode by which the Council conducts its business is through the committee system.
