The Chairman can be confirmed in office by the Administrative Council for one further two-year period. The Executive Secretary can be confirmed in office by the Administrative Council for an unlimited number of further two year-periods. One half of the ordinary members must be replaced every two years by election on a rotation principle to be defined by the Administrative Council.
