The Cabinet of the Mongol Uls is the executive branch of the government of the Mongol Uls, responsible to the Kurultai. Tasked with the implementation of govenment policy, the Cabinet oversees the day-to-day affairs of the Khanate, manages foreign policy, and proposes an annual budget to the Kurultai. The second and incumbent cabinet is the Second Orda Cabinet, a minority cabinet led by Prime Minister Bataariin Orda and composed of the Greater Mongolia Movement and Central Asian People's Party, with external support from the Gurkani Clerical Association, the Islamic Modernist Party, and the Gangs Seng Ge (Tibetan People's Party).
Formation
The Cabinet must maintain the majority support of the Kurultai for confidence and supply votes; however, a single party has never won enough seats to govern alone, so all cabinets have been coalition governments with other parties providing additional external support. Forming a majority in the Kurultai is especially hard due to the fact that slightly less than a third of the Kurultai seats are held by nonpartisan Clan Chieftains, who by custom abstain on investiture, confidence, and supply votes. As investiture votes require an absolute (51 vote) majority, abstentions count as de facto "no" votes, meaning that Prime Ministers wishing to be invested must secure the support of more than three-quarters of those voting. While attempts have been made to change this law, such proposals have been voted down by minority parties, who rely on their kingmaker status in investiture votes in order to secure concessions for their constituents.
