• 1 Guardianship Council .png 2016-06-12T21:22:52-07:00 The Guardianship Council 8 plain 2016-06-22T22:56:36-07:00 Comprised of only religious jurists, the Guardianship Council  is a twelve member examining body that possesses constitutional authority on matters of vetting candidates for all elections in Iran (from municipal elections to the National elections). Without the consent of the Guardianship Council, no candidate can make it to the ballot.  It also has the primary duty to deem laws and treaties proposed by the Consultative Assembly or the President as Islamic or otherwise. If deemed un Islamic or anti revolutionary (in accordance with howsoever the council defines the terms), the Council reserves the right to downright veto it.  
  
  For the Guardianship council half of the jurists are appointed by the Supreme Leader while the other half by the Consultative Assembly. There is however a complication in the latter provision. The choice of the six jurists selected by the Consultative Assembly is made from a list of references made by the head of the judiciary, who in fact is appointed by the Supreme Leader. The chain of balancing and controlling, again, remains within the Iron fist/post revolutionary institutions. On the other hand, all candidates to and all bills by the Consultative Assembly can by simply ruled out by a council of twelve jurists.
