History
The Politburo of the Central Committee was established on 3 October 1965 when the
United Party of the Cuban Socialist Revolution was transformed into the present-day Communist Party of Cuba. It was established as the party's highest decision-making body between plenary sessions of the
Central Committee, and its meetings were to be chaired by the
First Secretary of the Central Committee. Of the eight members elected to the

Provisional Secretariat.

4th Party Congress, held on 10–14 October 1991, with the intention of streamlining the party's decision-making process.
