The Yokozuna Deliberation Council (Yokozuna shingi iinkai, 横綱審議委員会), sometimes abbreviated as Yokoshin (よこしん), is the advisory body to the Japan Sumo Association. The Council considers candidates for promotion to sumo's top rank of yokozuna, before passing its recommendations to the JSA. It also gives comments about san'yaku ranked wrestlers anticipating their potential promotions.
