Can a reserve party in Vientam member stand for election to be elected as a delegate to the superior congress?

According to Article 14 of Decision 244/QD-TW in 2014 of the Central Committee, the committee has the following provisions:

“Article 14. To stand for election, nominate as a delegate to the immediate superior party congress
1- At the congress of party members, only official party members can stand for election at their own congress to be elected as a delegate to the superior party congress. Official party members, temporary living party members and reserve party members have the right to nominate official party members to be elected by the congress as delegates to the superior congress.
2- At the congress of delegates, only official delegates can stand for election, nominate official delegates at their own congresses for the congress to elect a delegate to the superior party congress.
3- The presidium of the congress nominates personnel to be convened by the party committee to convene the congress to prepare for election by the congress as delegates to the superior party congress.”

Thus, at the party congress, only official party members can stand for election to be re-elected delegates to the superior party congress. A reserve party member is only entitled to nominate an official party member as a delegate to the superior congress.

Only official Party members can elect delegates to the superior congress?

Pursuant to Article 15 of Decision 244/QD-TW in 2014 of the Central Committee, the committee has the following provisions:

“Article 15. Right to vote
1- Only official delegates to congresses of delegates at all levels and official party members of congresses of party members have the right to elect their own party committees and elect delegates to superior party congresses.
2- At the party congress, temporary active party members and reserve party members do not have the right to vote.”

Thus, according to this provision, reserve party members do not have the right to vote in the party congress.
