The National Council (Portuguese: Conselho Nacional, Tetum: Komite Nasional) was a deliberative body that existed in East Timor between July 1999 and August 2001 during the period that the country was administered by the United Nations following the end of the Indonesian occupation. The council was replaced by a Constituent Assembly after elections held in August 2001.
