Central Command Team (CCT) expanded  

Meanwhile, the party has expanded its top leadership collective, the CCT, from 46 to 66 members.

This includes the top six officials, with the additional members growing from 40 to 60 following the adoption of constitutional amendments by delegates on Saturday.

The party stipulates that 50 % of the CCT should be women, meaning that there must be a minimum of 33 women.
