The Cabinet of Queensland is the chief policy-making organ of the Government of Queensland. CompositionThe Cabinet has the same membership as the Executive Council: the Premier and ministers (including the Deputy Premier and Attorney-General). Assistant ministers, formerly called parliamentary secretaries,{{#tag:ref|In establishing his ministry, Campbell Newman renamed them assistant ministers as he believed the term more easily understood.[1] The Constitution of Queensland Act 2001 and other statutes still use the name parliamentary secretaries.[2]|group=n}} are not members. Current members{{see also|Second Palaszczuk Ministry}}
RoleUnlike the Executive Council, which is a mechanism for advising the Governor, the Cabinet meets without the Governor and is responsible for formulating and coordinating policy. In effect, the Executive Council is a vehicle for implementing decisions made in Cabinet.[3] Individual ministers are collectively responsible for the decisions made by Cabinet, so if a minister is unwilling to publicly support a collective decision of Cabinet, he or she is expected to resign.[4] MeetingsMeetings of the Cabinet are usually held on 10:00 a.m. on Mondays in the Executive Building's Cabinet Room. The Premier (or Deputy Premier in her or his absence)[4] chairs its meetings[5] and establishes its agenda.[6] All members are expected to be present at all meetings unless excused by the Premier.[5] See also
