The Cabinet of Arabi is a body consisting of the Vice President of Arabi and the heads of the of executive branch's departments in the federal government of Arabi. It is the primary executive advisory body to the President of Arabi. The president is the director of the board but is not formally a member of the Cabinet. However, the president and vice president are usually considered as members. The heads of the departments are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. They all serve at the pleasure of the president, meaning if the president asks them to resign, they usually submit their resignation within 24 hours.
The Cabinet does not have any executive powers or functions of its own and no votes are needed. There are 12 members, 9 department heads, a director, an assistant and associate director (usually the presidential chief of staff). The Cabinet meets in the official presidential conference room located across the hall from the president's office.
The Constitution of Arabi does not clearly establish a Cabinet. The role of the Cabinet is to provide counsel to the president. The heads of the executive departments are—if eligible—in the presidential line of succession.
