Regional Coordination Councils
The Regional Coordination Councils are deliberative bodies at the regional level with the representation of provincial authorities and civil society in a proportion of 60% - 40% respectively. They act as a body for agreement and consultation where decisions are made with a non-binding consensus. They meet twice a year to express opinions on: the Annual Strategic Plan, the Annual Participatory Budget, the Concerted Regional Development Plan, and any other functions assigned by the Regional Government.
