The committee was tasked with convening the 15th LCY Congress on 29 September 1990 and renewing the organisation. It also acted like a provisional leadership that took over some of the powers of the Presidency and the Central Committee, whose composition was not reelected at the 14th Congress. It worked on creating a new statute and programme for the reformed organisation. A committee working group was established to propose a new name for the LCY. It eventually landed on the "Yugoslav Socialist Party" (YSP), wrote a draft programme, and created an electoral symbol to participate in national elections. According to Serb Predrag Jereminov, the committee's vice chairman, the party would base its program on the following principles: "Democratic socialism, federalism, national equality, a market, and a rule of law and welfare state". The proposed draft programme stated the YSP originated from the LCY, but that it was a new party since, according to Jereminov, "the League of Communists of Yugoslavia is definitively going into history."
