Structure edit

The structure of the board has again been significantly altered at the regular general assembly in March 2014. It is now divided into the administrative council, consisting of the treasurer and secretary general, and two or more spokespersons.[2] The spokespersons' explicit purpose is to represent the organisation politically.

At the same general assembly, a 50% quota of females in the spokespersons' council has been decided upon.[3] The decision remains controversial within the Young Pirates.[4]

Regional organisations exist in Lower Saxony,[5] North Rhine-Westphalia,[6] Schleswig-Holstein,[7] Hamburg,[8] Thuringia,[9] Saxony[10] and Berlin.[11]

No membership to the mother party is necessary. There exists no minimum age for a membership, but an age limit of 28 years (membership ends with the 28th birthday). This limit does not apply to honorary members.
