| The Assembly of Experts, which meets for one week annually, comprises 86 "virtuous and learned" clerics elected by suffrage for eight-year terms. As with the presidential and parliamentary elections, the Council of Guardians determines candidates' eligibility.[142] The Assembly elects the Supreme Leader and has the constitutional authority to remove the Supreme Leader from power at any time.[142] It has not challenged any of the Supreme Leader's decisions.[142] Local City Councils are elected by public vote to four-year terms in all cities and villages of Iran. According to article seven of Iran's Constitution, these local councils together with the Parliament are "decision-making and administrative organs of the State". This section of the constitution was not implemented until 1999 when the first local council elections were held across the country. Councils have many different responsibilities including electing mayors, supervising the activities of municipalities; studying, planning, co-ordinating and implementing of social, cultural, educational, health, economic, and welfare requirements of their constituencies.
