(Municipal (or City) Council) Individual welfare committee
Explanation:
A suggestion based on what I read as below. But I can't find anyone with a direct translation.

This tells me it likely is not population/census... "Individnämnden ansvarar för myndighetsutövning som rör enskild person inom individ- och familjeomsorg, hemtjänst, särskilt boende, korttidsboende och anhörigvård samt serveringstillstånd" At https://www.lerum.se/Kommun-och-politik/Kommunens-organisati...

Individual Issues Committee


Explanation:
Looking further at the references Deane provided, these committees cover a broader range of issues than just welfare, notably the issuing (or revocation) of licences for the sale of alcohol.

the Care and Support Committee


Explanation:
Looking further into Dean's reference and also the English pages of the Lerum website, I reckon 'the Care and Support Committee' would be the best match.
In my local council (larger than Lerum), the function is carried out by the following committees:
Children and Young People Committee
Culture and Communities Committee
Health and Adult Social Care Committee
Licensing and Regulation Committee


Example sentence(s):
  • This family matter should be referred to the Council Care and Support committee.

private arbitration committee


Explanation:
Hello
My second attempt after further comments by Agneta.

I still think that "individ" is the contrary of "corporate" so if "public" does not work, why not "private" as in "private person". We would not use "individual in the way it has been used in some of the suggestions in my humble opinion.
Private also confirms the idea of "not heard in public" so that kind of works too.
Maybe '"arbitration" as this means not settled in court and I'm wondering if the "invididnämden" can be viewed as "non judiciary".
