Organizational Structure The Chair is held for a one-year term, with the option of continuing for an additional year given the consent of the Member States. The Chair appoints a Coordinator responsible for coordinating APC events during the year. A permanent Secretariat established in January 2007, provides operational and administrative support to the Coordinator. APC meetings are currently held at the Plenary, Sub-regional and Working Group levels. APC Plenary meetings are held once a year, usually in October. At the plenary meeting, the next APC Chair is announced, the work programme of the year is evaluated and the broad direction of next years' programme is endorsed. |
