The GSC has set out some principles which should guide the functioning of the Council. He recommends that consensus between the nine (9) members of the Presidential Council be given priority in any decision-making process of the CP.

The choice of the Prime Minister is made between three prime ministers on a list of 15.
For the choice of the Prime Minister, the GSC refers to article 6 of the agreement of April 3, 2024, specifying that the procedure leading to the choice of the Prime Minister of the transition goes through the following stages: The candidacy of 15 applicants for the more of which 9 are proposed by the parties to the agreement and 6 others submitted by other sectors of society; the pre-qualification of 3 prime ministers after analysis of their files. For the moment one of the names that comes up insistently is that of the former minister, Gérald Germain.
Furthermore, regarding the point of contention around the choice of Edgard Leblanc as president of the council, the Civil Society Group (GSC) indicated that the Presidential Council of the Transition cannot operate on the basis of a majority and a protesting minority, while the survival of the population is in danger.
