Councils

The seats, and who holds them.

The Centre is governed by two councils. The Supreme Advisory Council holds five permanent seats and takes the final decision on membership, grades and designations. The High Scientific Council holds seven seats for an annual term and is the body consulted where a decision turns on scientific judgement.
