{{Politics of Mava}}
The '''Chairman of the Government Council of the Republic of Mava''' (Mavean: ''Kiiqkausaaktaagiktaapiit Kaatitatiikamat Maava Yakiinaigaalu''), also known as the '''Prime Minister of Mava''' (Mavean: ''Kiatutmaitigik''), is the head of government of the [[Mava|Republic of Mava]]. The chairman is responsible for presiding over meetings of the Government Council, coordinating its activities and representing it internationally. The officeholder is always a member of the Assembly of the Islands (the confederal parliment) and is appointed on its nomination - usually as the leader of the largest party or political grouping. The current chairman - [[Kausaanek Malaati]] - has served since 22 March 2023.
 
Unlike in most republics, the chairman - as head of government - does not have the power to appoint or dismiss ministers. Because of the requirement that there be two cabinet members from each of the four jurisdictions, it is the responsibility of the Assembly to put forward nominees for appointment. The chairman's principal role is to coordinate the activities of the Government Council; although they theoretically have the power to direct its proceedings and to determine the direction of policy, it is usual that decisions are reached unanimously or with an overwhelming majority.
 
As with most political offices in Mava, the tenure of the chairman and of the other ministers is tied with that of the Assembly. On the dissolution of the Assembly, the chairman serves in a caretaker capacity until the Assembly reconvenes and confirms the government. In general practice, this does not affect the chairman's authority.
 
==Nomination and appointment==
Members of the Legislative Assembly may nominate a candidate for the role of prime minister, with a minimum of 10 members (15 percent) 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 Speaker of the Legislative Assembly should nominations occur between elections. Voting occurs on the penultimate Monday of May, or on another date appointed by the speaker. A candidate needs only the majority of votes in their favour, rather than an absolute majority of the Legislative Assembly.
 
Voting is held in secret, with successive rounds of voting continuing until an outright winner is elected. There is no requirement for candidates to be party leaders, and a number of backbench members have been nominated in the past. However, it is generally accepted practice that members will nominate and vote for their party leader. 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 Legislative Assembly. Mid-term nomination processes 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 Legislative Assembly (1996) because of ill-health.
 
==Role==
Under the Constitution of Mava, executive power is vested in the Legislative 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 Legislative 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.
