Formed in line with the organisation's founding in 1946, the deputy chairman is the deputy to the executive head of the organisation as a whole, in whose absence the deputy chairman would assume the organisation's day-to-day governance. Since its foundation, the office of the 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 Wopke Hoekstra, the Deputy Prime Minister of the Netherlands.
