What’s Empanelment
Empanelment is the process of officially adding someone or something to a list, often for a specific purpose. It can refer to adding a person’s name to a list of jurors, or a company to a list of authorized or preferred providers. In a legal context, it usually means selecting a jury. In other contexts, it can mean creating a list of qualified or approved individuals or entities for a particular role or service.
