Article 32(1) provides that the Cabinet "shall have the general direction and control of the executive government" of Samoa. The Cabinet is composed, per article 32(2), of the Prime Minister and "not fewer than eight nor more than twelve other Members of Parliament", appointed by the Head of State on the advice of the Prime Minister.[1] Current CabinetAs of March 2011.
