Governing body of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The National Board of the CDU (German: CDU-Bundesvorstand, also translated as its Federal Board) is the highest permanent governing body of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany. The Board meets at least 6 times a year. The daily affairs of the party are the responsibility of the Presidium of the CDU.[1]

The Board consists of the Leader of the CDU, the Secretary General, the Five Deputy Leaders, the treasurer, the honorary chairs, seven elected members of the presidium and 26 elected board members. If the position is held by a CDU member, the Board also consists of the Chancellor of Germany, the President or Vice President of the Bundestag, the chair of the CDU/CSU faction, the President of the European Parliament and the chair of the European People's Party.[1]
The CDU Minister Presidents of the federal states attend the meetings of the Presidium in an advisory capacity. In practice, the same applies to the Federal Managing Director, who, according to the statutes, only participates in the Executive Committee in an advisory capacity.[1]
