2nd Central Committee of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party

The 2nd Central Committee of the Lao People's Revolutionary Party (2nd CC LPRP) was elected by the 2nd National Congress on 6 February 1972,[1] and remained in session until the election of the 3rd Central Committee on 27 April 1982.[2] In between convocations of the party congresses the Central Committee is the highest decision-making institution in the party.[3] The 2nd Central Committee was not a permanent institution and delegated day-to-day work to elected central guidance bodies, such as the Politburo and the Secretariat. It convened meetings, known as "Plenary Session of the 2nd Central Committee", to discuss major policies.[4] The 2nd CC was composed of 23 members and 6 alternates,[5] and at its 1st Plenary Session on 6 February 1972 it elected a seven-man 2nd Politburo, a four-man 2nd Secretariat and elected Kaysone Phomvihane to the office General Secretary of the Central Committee.[1] As well as electing the party's central bodies, the 2nd National Congress formulated the general party line of the 2nd CC.[5] The line reaffirmed the party's commitment to the theories of national people's democratic revolution in Laos and of constructing socialism by bypassing capitalism.[5]
