This is a reference note, not a report of any event. The Office of the Clerk publishes procedural references so that the public and the Legislature share an accurate understanding of how the Assembly's own processes operate. This note describes the procedure by which the Assembly fills the office of Civic Consul. It is published in the ordinary course. It does not concern, reference, or anticipate any particular member, motion, or vacancy, and its publication should not be read to indicate that any such matter is before the chamber. The Civic Consul is the domestic executive of the Republic, holding the residual executive authority not enumerated to the Legat Consul (§2.5). Unlike the Legat Consul, who is chosen through a national process (§2.1), the Civic Consul is chosen by the Assembly from among the Assembly's own serving members. The office is not put before the general electorate. Its holder is selected by, and remains accountable to, the chamber. Under §2.6, the Assembly elects a Civic Consul through a constructive vote: a single motion that both installs a named member in the office and, where an incumbent holds it, removes that incumbent. The motion carries only on an absolute majority of the full seated membership — that is, a majority of all seats, not merely a majority of those present and voting. A motion that fails to name a successor has no effect. The chamber cannot vacate the office into emptiness; it can only move from one named holder to another, or from vacancy to a named holder. A member elected Civic Consul vacates their Assembly seat, which the relevant State fills as a mid-term vacancy (§2.6, §3.2); the departing member's Assembly term is deemed fully served. While in office the Civic Consul holds the office's ceremonial seat, which carries the right to sit, speak, and be held to account before the chamber, but carries no vote (§2.6, §1.23). Selection to the office is therefore not an addition to a member's legislative role but an exchange of it: a member who becomes Civic Consul ceases to be a voting member of the Assembly for the duration. Should the office stand vacant and the Assembly not elect a Civic Consul within the period provided, the caretaker function attaches automatically to the sitting Speaker of the Assembly by constitutional operation, with authority limited to maintaining existing policy (§2.6.a). No election is held to install a caretaker; the role attaches to the standing office of Speaker and to no one by any member's designation. This is a continuity provision, not a path to the office.
