Terms of office as Senator and Senate President

edit

The term of office of a senator runs from January 2 of the year after his/her election until either the December 31 or January 1 after the subsequent election (this last date has not been subject yet to final determination by the PR Supreme Court). The term of office of a Senate President runs from the second Monday of January of the year after an election until December 31 after the subsequent election. At that time, the person who has held the job of Secretary of the Senate becomes Acting President until the inaugural session (second Monday in January), which the outgoing Secretary presides until the new President is elected and sworn in as such.Pr4ever (talk) 14:03, 8 June 2013 (UTC)Reply
