In accordance with resolution 2000/7 of the United
Nations Economic and Social Council, the Conference will elect an Executive
Committee consisting of a Chair and six members, with particular regard to due
representation of all the subregions. The members of the Executive Committee
may be re-elected for three successive terms. The Chair may not be re-elected

successive terms may be elected again after two years have elapsed since the
end of its last term of office.
