The Joint Committee of Parliament Chairman PP Chaudhary moved the motion for extension of the panel's tenure in the House, and it was passed with a voice vote.
The Lok Sabha secretary general also informed the House that a new member from Rajya Sabha was being included in the panel.
The resignation of YSR Congress MP V Vijayasai Reddy from the Rajya Sabha led to a vacancy in the 39-member committee.
The 'One Nation, One Election' committee was constituted in the last winter session and its term was to end on the first day of the last week of the ongoing session.
The committee members are of the view that their work is likely to stretch for a long period of time as the seminal import of the proposed laws will require them to consult a wide range of stakeholders, including political parties and state governments.
