Chaired by Bounkham Vorachit, a member of the Party Central Committee Secretariat and Secretary of the Bank of the Lao Party Executive Committee, the one-day meeting was attended by 17 committee members. The session took note of the Party Central Committee Secretariat’s decision recognising the fifth-term Party Executive Committee, considered a resolution on the allocation of responsibilities within the committee, reviewed a draft resolution setting out duties, scope of authority and working methods, and examined a draft operational plan for 2026–2030 intended to guide the committee’s work over the next five years.
