In addition, the following persons shall be non-voting members of the board of directors:
(1)  the head of the local development centre;
(2)  the Assistant Deputy Minister of Regions for the region concerned, or the representative of that Assistant Deputy Minister;

The Member of the National Assembly for any electoral division whose territory is under the jurisdiction of the local development centre has the right to take part in the different proceedings, without the right to vote.
No sector represented on the board of directors may hold the majority of the seats on the board or hold a number of seats which prevents a suitable balance in the representation of the different sectors, according to the needs of the community concerned. Each board member has one vote only. The same rules apply to the executive committee, if any.
Board members shall be designated by the people in the sector they originate from and represent.
