Council of Ministers (Kazulia)

The Council of Ministers of the Kingdom of Kazulia (Or simply the cabinet of Kazulia) consists of the Prime Minister (President of the Council of Ministers) and ministers. Deputy Prime Ministers (Vice-presidents of the Council of Ministers) and presidents of committees specified in statutes may also be appointed to the Cabinet. The Council of Ministers is the body which exercises executive power. Under the Public Administration Branches Act the Prime Minister, who heads the Council of Ministers, enjoys a considerable degree of freedom in decisions concerning its personnel. The Prime Minister may create, combine, or dissolve departments, change their area of responsibility, and even apply to the President to expand the Council of Ministers to include ministers without portfolio, or coordinators for projects performed by the Council of Ministers, e.g. reform of the educational system or health service. The composition of the Council of Ministers is proposed by the Prime Minister, who lodges an application to the King of Kazulia for the appointment of cabinet members. The King of Kazulia appoints the Council of Ministers and receives their oath "of loyalty to the Constitution and other laws of the Kingdom of Kazulia".

The Council of Ministers also manages the current policy of state, ensures the execution of the law by issuing ordinances, coordinates and controls the work of government administrative bodies, ensures public order and the internal and external security of the state, protects the interests of the State Treasury, approves the draft of the budget, and supervises its execution. The Council of Ministers also signs international agreements which require ratification, and can revoke other international agreements. Members of the Council of Ministers are jointly responsible to the Parliament of Kazulia for the operation of the government; they can also be individually responsible for the tasks entrusted to them by the Prime Minister or falling within the authority of their ministries. Any breach of the law or crime related to the offices they hold carry the risk of trial before the State Tribunal, a special court appointed by Parliament. The Council of Ministers is represented in the different provinces of the country by its regional governors. The governers supervise the state administration within the territory of their province. The officials subordinate to the voivodes, as well as those working in the central offices and ministries, constitute the civil service corps, a politically independent body or administrators. The civil service corps is headed by the Prime Minister. Alongside the civil service corps, the Chancellery of the Prime Minister and all ministries entail political cabinets - teams of advisors working for the government and each ministry on detailed policy guidelines.
