The Deputy Chairman of the Hanoverian Union is the deputy to the chief administrative officer of the Hanoverian Union, a politico-economic union comprising the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Formed in line with the organisation's founding in 1946, the deputy chairman is the deputy to the executive head of the organisation, in whose absence the deputy chairman would assume the organisation's day-to-day governance. Since its foundation, the office of deputy chairman has been rotated among the organisation's three member states every five years, with the office normally going to the deputy prime minister of the country next in line to the chairmanship, with the current officeholder being David Gauke, the Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.
Given that the office traditionally rotates between the organisastion's three member states every five years, there is therefore no fixed residence for the deputy chairman, with the designated residence often depending on the country chosen for the deputy chairmanship at any given moment, with the current deputy chairman's residence being 11 Downing Street in London, England.
