The National Executive Committee (NEC) is the chief administrative body of the Labour Party. Its composition has changed over the years, and includes representatives of affiliated trade unions, the Parliamentary Labour Party and European Parliamentary Labour Party, constituency Labour parties, and socialist societies, as well as ''ex officio'' members such as the Party Leader and Deputy Leader and several of their appointees. During the 1980s, the NEC had a major role in policy-making and was often at the heart of disputes over party policy. In the Tony Blair era, the committee's role declined and its membership was reformed, but it remains the administrative authority of the party. Its former policy development function is now largely carried out by the National Policy Forum. One of its committees has disciplinary powers including the ability to expel members of the party who have brought it into disrepute or to readmit previously expelled members. The (Labour History Archive and Study Centre ), in the People's History Museum in Manchester has the full run of the minutes of the National Executive Committee in their collection. ==Membership== As of 2015, the NEC had 33 members elected from the following constituencies: * 2: Leader and Deputy Leader of the party * 1: Treasurer * 3: Front Bench MPs nominated by the Cabinet or Shadow Cabinet * 1: MEP leader of the European Parliamentary Labour Party * 1: Young Labour * 12: Affiliated Trade Unions * 2: Socialist societies * 6: Constituency Labour Parties * 2: Labour Councillors * 3: Backbench MPs or MEPs elected by all Labour MPs and MEPs In addition, the PLP Chief Whip, PLP Chair, Scottish Labour Leader and Leader of the Labour Group in the National Assembly for Wales attend ex-officio without a vote.
