The Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC) is the highest organ between two congresses.
History
[edit]The Central Committee was established on 3 October 1965 when the United Party of the Cuban Socialist Revolution was transformed into the present-day Communist Party of Cuba.[1] Between Central Committee plenary sessions the Politburo and the Secretariat meet in its place.[1] It has been led since its establishment in 1965 by the First and Second Secretary of the Central Committee.[1]
Alternate membership of the Central Committee was abolished at the 4th Party Congress, held on 10–14 October 1991, with the intention of streamlining the party's decision-making process.[2]
