The Cabinet is the highest policy formation and decision-making body of the executive branch. It consists of Ministers who oversee departments and government agencies. The Cabinet meets once a week at the Kohatuan Government House to discuss and vote on various issues. The Cabinet is currently led by [[Opal Lazuli]], leader of the Kohatu Social Democratic Party and former leader of the Kohatu National Liberation Front.
 
The Kohatu Legislative Assembly is responsible for passing laws, and holding the executive branch accountable. It has the power to pass a motion of no-confidence calling for the Cabinet to resign. The leader of the largest political party becomes the Chief Minister unless a motion of no-confidence is passed. In which case, the Chief Minister can either resign with the rest of the Cabinet or ask the Emperor to dissolve the Assembly and call for fresh elections. It is the sole law-making body of the Kohatu Isles and much of its work is done in committees.
