Everything here is as published by Congress. Referrals run from the 107th Congress on, so a committee older than that shows fewer than it has taken. Membership, meetings and nominations are held for the 119th Congress only, which is why they are shown without a history rather than reported as none. A subcommittee's referrals are recorded against it separately from its parent's, so the two lists do not add up. Records come from Congress.gov.
