The Federation was formed on 3 January 1958, and was formally dissolved on 31 May 1962. The Governor-General was constitutionally required to take advice from the Prime Minister of the West Indies Federation, but was by far the more powerful and prestigious of the two positions, containing almost all executive authority within the government and containing powers far beyond that of governors-general in the Dominions.[1] Governor-General of the West Indies Federation (1958–1962)
