New Republic Ruling Council
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
The Ruling Council was the successor of the New Republic Provisional Council. The Ruling Council was composed of the Chief of State of the New Republic and the Chairbeings of the six Councils of the New Republic Senate. If a Vote of No Confidence was brought against the Chief of State, the Ruling Council would review its legitimacy, then vote on whether or not the motion should be brought before the Senate. The Chief could bypass a vote by declaring a leave of absence and nominating one of the council to become caretaker Chief.
At some unknown point after the Black Fleet Crisis, the Ruling Council was replaced by the Advisory Council.
