1.4 Governance System of the ECNGOC<br />

The Provincial Assembly is the organisation’s highest<br />

authority, comprising all member organisations. It meets<br />

bi-annually to consider and decide on strategy and to<br />

confirm the incoming Provincial Executive Committee (PEC)<br />

and alter, vary or amend the Constitution, as well as normal<br />

administrative business. A small Provincial Council with<br />

lesser powers meets in the years between the Provincial<br />

Assembly.<br />

The PEC governs the Coalition between Provincial<br />

Assemblies, generally meeting quarterly. Members are<br />

nominated to a PEC selection committee that selects and<br />

recommends members for approval by the outgoing PEC.<br />

The PEC members represent the 6 districts and 2 metros.<br />

Additional members can be appointed from outside the<br />

membership according to the expertise and knowledge<br />

they bring to the PEC.<br />

Prior to the Provincial Assembly each district holds District<br />

General Meetings (DGMs) for members to attend and<br />

discuss issues to address at the Provincial Assembly. Each<br />

DGM elects an honorary District Convenor who acts as the<br />

link between the members in that district, the PEC and the<br />

secretariat.<br />

Members of the Provincial Executive Committee (PEC), District Convening Organizations (DCOs)<br />

and staff members at ECNGOC’s Biennial General Meeting (BGM) 2017.<br />
