The Prime Minister of Saint-Jean-Baptiste (Principean: Premier ministre de Saint-Jean-Baptiste) is the head of government of Saint-Baptiste. The Prime Minister heads the Baptistois government, and is considered the highest legislative position in the country. The current Prime Minister is Robert Ménard, since 2022.

History

The role of Prime Minister originated in Saint-Baptiste's 1947 constitution, replacing the similar position of President of the Territorial Council (Principean: Président du Conseil Territorial) that led the colonial Territorial Council of Saint-Baptiste between 1930 and 1947. Despite de jure being a stronger position than the mostly symbolic role of President, between 1950 and 1984 the Prime Minister was de facto subservient to the President under the authoritarian Bachelet regime. With democratization in the 1980s and a new constitution in 1986, the position of Prime Minister would re-emerge as a stronger legislative role as the official head of government.

Role

The Prime Minister, as leader of the government, sets out the country's policies and goals for the Chamber's term, as well as providing leadership in the country's day-to-day administration. A perspective Prime Minister is first nominated by the Chamber of Deputies, in all prior cases from the largest party in the legislature. The nominated candidate is then officially appointed by the president to form a government. A governing cabinet is then selected by the Prime Minister and granted support by the Chamber. As much of the Prime Minister's power is kept by having majority support in the Chamber of Deputies, a failure to keep that support can mean a vote of no confidence in a Prime Minister and the resignation of the cabinet, including the possibility of a snap election if a government cannot be formed in twelve days.
