The EFTA Council
The EFTA Council is the highest governing body of EFTA. Member States usually meet once a month, at Ambassadorial level (Heads of Permanent Delegations to EFTA) in Geneva. In these meetings, the Delegations consult each other, negotiate and decide on policy issues regarding EFTA. The Council also meets twice a year at Ministerial level, usually in June and December. Each Member State is represented and has one vote, though decisions are usually reached through consensus.
