However, the General Council also meets as a dispute resolution body and trade policy review body. The Ministerial Conference is the highest authority body of the WTO that meets at least once every two years for strategic planning and decision-making advice and think tanks of its ministerial members from all countries. The second leading department of the WTO is the General Council, which is divided into three bodies: the General Council, the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB), and the Trade Policy Review Body (TPRB). The three sub-organisms are responsible for the daily work at inter-ministerial level and report to the Ministerial Conference at least once a month. The TPRB General Council meets to negotiate and review policies submitted to the Trade Policy Review Mechanism (TPRM). The DSB has the legislative body on the dispute resolution process involving parties and third parties
