The Government of the Kingdom of Skaven (Skavian: Konungariket Skaviens regering) is the national cabinet of Skaven, and the country's executive authority.
The short-form name Regeringen ("the Government") is used both in the Basic Laws of Skaven and in the vernacular, while the long-form is only used in international treaties.
Organization
The Government operates as a collegial body with collective responsibility and consists of the Prime Minister and their cabinet ministers (Skavian: Statsråd), appointed and dismissed at the sole discretion of the Prime Minister.
The Prime Minister is elected by Riksdag on the proposal of the Speaker of the Riksdag. Members of the Council of State are then selected by the Prime Minister, who informs the Riksdag about their decision. The new government takes office at a cabinet meeting in front of the Monarch. In coalition governments, however, it is in practice the respective party leaders that choose the party's ministers.
The Government is composed of an administrative department and 11 ministries, including the Prime Minister's Office. The Government itself proposes the number of ministers and their roles for the Riksdag for its confirmation, and it is possible to reshuffle portfolios during the Government's duration. Each minister is assisted by a secretary of state (Skavian: statssekreterare), who serve at the pleasure of the minister.
The Riksdag can dismiss the government by a vote of no confidence in the Prime Minister or dismiss an individual cabinet member by a vote of no confidence. New parliamentary elections are held every four years. If the parliamentary situation remains unchanged after the elections, the current practice is that the Government can remain in office without the Speaker being instructed to consider other government options. Should the government and any supporting parties no longer have a majority in Parliament, the Prime Minister is normally entitled to resign. The government can call extra parliamentary elections between the ordinary elections. If an incumbent government resigns, it remains in office for a transitional period as a caretaker government until a new government takes office.
Cabinets
Incumbent Government
The current government, the Lindquist government, comprises 21 ministers, including the Prime Minister. They head the government and are the official head of government. Sometimes deputy Prime Ministers are appointed; if there is no such person, the most senior minister is Deputy Prime Minister.
There are currently 11 ministries, but the number is not fixed by law. Thus, some ministers are also heads of department, while others are responsible for sub-areas within a larger department. Prime Ministers are usually members of parliament, although they do not have to be. Ministers who are MPs, including the Prime Minister, give up their seats in the Riksdag while they are ministers, and are replaced by another representative from the same party. During their visits to Parliament, for instance, during interpellations (questions posed by Riksdag members to the government), ministers sit in specially designated seats in the lower left-hand corner of the Parliament's plenary chamber.
