The treaty organisation has four institutional elements: the Council of Representatives (the sole governing body), TreatyPol (law enforcement coordination and anti-corruption), the Headquarters (an international zone with diplomatic enclave status), and the civil service (a deliberately minimal permanent staff). Each is documented through its founding annex and, where applicable, a supporting position paper.
The Treaty Organisation
- TreatyPol Mandate, organisational structure, criminal information systems, anti-corruption operations, and oversight. Combines Annex B and the TreatyPol position paper.
- Headquarters Legal status of the international zone, governance and administration, development plan, infrastructure, and relationship with the host nation. Combines Annex C and the headquarters position paper. Note: final location (Kibuye, Rwanda or Alexandria, Egypt) is unresolved.
- Financial Arrangements Member contribution formula (0.05% of GDP), budget cycle, treasury operations, capital financing (~$165 million, 20-year term), development grant programme (~$40 million annually), and financial oversight. Combines Annex D and the financial framework position paper.
- Council and Governance The Council of Representatives: one nation, one vote. Simple majority for most decisions; two-thirds for treaty modifications. No parliament, no supranational court, no mandate expansion mechanism.
