{{Politics of Mava}}
The '''prime minister of [[Mava]]''' (Mavean: ''Kiatutmaitigik Maava Naigaalyakii'') is the head of government of the Republic of Mava. The prime minister is responsible for chairing meetings of the cabinet, selecting ministers to serve in their respective portfolios, and overseeing and generally directing the activities of the Mavean government. The prime minister is always a member of the Assembly and is appointed based on their ability to command the confidence of a majority of its members. The current prime minister - Kausaanek Malaati - has served since 9 November 2015.
 
The prime minister is appointed by the president, who makes the selection based on who is best able to command the confidence of the Assembly. Typically, this means the individual who is the leader of the largest party or coalition of parties. Appointments are made following a confirmatory vote in the Assembly, which may also remove the prime minister via a constructive motion of no confidence. The prime minister does not head a specific ministry, although they may be appointed to hold other portfolios.
 
As with most political offices in Mava, the tenure of the prime minister is tied with that of the Assembly. On the dissolution of the Assembly, the prime minister serves in a caretaker capacity until the Assembly reconvenes and confirms the government. In general practice, this does not affect the prime minister's authority.
 
==Etymology==
The name of the office in Mavean is "''Kiatutmaitigik''", which literally means "Chief Minister" ("kiatut"; minister + "maitigik"; chief/head). In Anglish, the name is officially translated as "Prime Minister", although the office is sometimes referred to by its more direct translation.
 
During the period of presidential government (1925-1943), the office was officially called "First Minister" in Anglish, although the Mavean name remained the same as it is today.
 
==Nomination and appointment==
Candidates for the role of prime minister are nominated by members of the Assembly. A minimum of 7 members (15 percent) are required for a nomination to be valid. Candidates are formally nominated on the first Monday following the general election, or at the command of the president of the Assembly should nominations occur between elections. Voting occurs on the penultimate Monday of May, or at another date as appointed by the president. A candidate needs only the majority of votes in their favour, rather than an absolute majority of the Assembly (currently 23 out of 45 members).
 
Once the process has been completed and a nominee has been elected, the president formally asks them to form a new government and appoints them to the position of prime minister.
 
According to precedent, outgoing prime ministers serve until the end of the term of the Assembly. Mid-term nomination procecces are generally avoided unless the prime minister dies or is removed from office. The last prime minister to leave office between elections was Teeqaat Nuisaat, who resigned half way through the 36th assembly (1996) because of ill-health.
 
==Role==
Under the Constitution of Mava, executive power is vested in the Assembly and then delegated from the Assembly to the prime minister and other members of the cabinet as appropriate. As such, the executive branch is directly linked to the legislative branch, with no clear separation of powers. Because the prime minister's authority is delegated rather than inherent in the office, except in cases where responsibilities are explicitly granted to them in the constitution, the office is legally not superior to other ministers, enjoying the formal status of first amongst equals. Seniority is therefore derived from the status of chairman of the cabinet.
 
Responsibilities belonging to the prime minister alone include the nomination of ministers. They are also responsible for:
* exercising the functions of the cabinet alongside relevant ministers
* development and coordination of government policy
* oversight of the civil service
* the relationship between the government and the Assembly.
 
The Great Seal of the Republic of Mava is held by the Prime Minister. However, the Prime Minister does not hold the position of Keeper in their own right but rather on behalf of the cabinet as a whole. Consequently, they exercise the powers of Keeper of the Great Seal only in consultation with and by the consent of the cabinet as a whole.
