    TBH i don't know exactly, but i think that this commission (at least similar) is ATM know as athletes commission, launched in 2016 in Volleyball House at Rio Olympics 2016 with current members :

    Graca as president, Vanja Grbić as secretary, Gamova, Larson, Papi, KYK, Chen Xue, Brink, Meppelink, Rego;

    Official duties aren't strictly described, but kind of relation of players with FIVB as crown organization, worldwide network of player,........
