They deal with content issues in the sense of WP:OFFICE (ie. blanking
an article before we get sued because of it), that's about it. While
individual cases should be left to the staff, it might be useful to
have the council decide general policy of when it's appropriate for
staff to step in and how (a significant amount of that decision making
would fall to Mike Godwin, though).
