3rd Central Leading Organisation of the Chinese Communist Party

The 3rd Central Leading Organisation of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), formally the Central Leading Organisation of the 3rd Central Executive Committee of the Communist Party of China, was elected by the 3rd Central Executive Committee (CEC) of the CCP in the aftermath of the 3rd National Congress. The term "Central Leading Organisation" encompasses all executive and work organs elected by the Central Executive Committee, and in this instance, means the Central Bureau and the Politburo elected by the 3rd CEC. This electoral term was succeeded by the 4th Central Bureau in 1925, in which the Politburo was discontinued.
