The Council of Government (Spanish: Consejo de Gobierno) of Hifax is the Prince's governing body and executive branch in the Politics of Hifax. It is formed by seven Ministers, the Deputy Minister of State and the Prince. The executive council is responsible of taking actions over the important happenings of the Principality and of representing the government policy.

All members, including the Minister of State and the Prince have equal power, although the meetings are presided by the Minister of State, who is elected together with the senators in the General Elections by universal suffrage. Ministers can freely debate proposed decisions and express their opinion on any aspect of cabinet policy, after decisions are made, the members of the council are obliged to support them, although disagreement is uncommon as members are generally part of the same party. When the council is formed by a coalition much effort is put into reaching relative consensus on any decision, however, this is uncommon, Hifaxian parties and independent politicians agree in a Hifaxian large welfare state and the protection of human rights.
