280.1. The designation of a person other than the mayor of the Naskapi village of Kawawachikamach to the office of chairman or vice-chairman of the executive committee entails the loss of the person’s office as regional councillor.

If the person so designated is the mayor of a northern village, the designation also entails resignation from that office. However, despite any inconsistent legislative provision, the person remains a member of the council strictly in the capacity of chairman or vice-chairman; the person is entitled to one vote and may again be designated as chairman or vice-chairman, as the case may be, without first having to be elected to a municipal council.

If the person so designated is the municipal councillor of a northern village, the person remains on the council as chairman or vice-chairman and is entitled to one vote. If the person resigns as municipal councillor, that person may again be designated as chairman or vice-chairman, as the case may be, without first having to be elected to a municipal council.

The term of office of the chairman or vice-chairman is three years from the date of appointment or until the date of appointment of a successor, if earlier; if the successor is appointed only after the expiry of the three-year period, the chairman or vice-chairman remains in office despite the expiry of the term of office.
