Article R811-65

Le président du Conseil national convoque les parties par lettre recommandée avec demande d’avis de réception dans les quinze jours de sa saisine et huit jours au moins avant la date de la séance de médiation.

En cas d’absence ou d’empêchement, le président du Conseil national est remplacé par le vice-président qui est alors investi de la qualité de médiateur.
