The General Council is the principal governing body of the Union. It is responsible for:
- Determining the policies and direction of the Union
- Adopting and amending the Charter
- Establishing and overseeing Directives and Programmes
- Regulating internal procedures of the Union
Presidency of the General Council
The Presidency of the General Council rotates among members, ensuring every member state gets a chance to oversee the General Council and its functions.
The President is responsible for making proposals to the General Council, with the Presidency rotating in alphabetical order every three calendar weeks.
The current Presidency of the General Council is Arbores.
How it works
Every member state has a single seat in the General Council, with a right to vote. Votes require three-quarters (3/4) of members voting in favour to pass, except in the case of membership which requires unanimity.
Proposals may only be submitted by the President of the General Council, following consultation with Members.
