The First Ministers serve as executive heads of specific government departments, exercising administrative day-to-day control over their portfolios. First Ministers are required to have a competency in their portfolio, and to dispense the functions of exercising their regulatory powers relating to their Ministry, countersigning the Monarch in matters within their portfolio, exercising their Ministry's lawful powers to enact the Laws passed by the Assembly, enforcing the Laws passed by the Assembly relating to their portfolio, developing their Ministry to reflect the changing national and international situations, and to communicate to the rest of the Royal Cabinet, the Prime Minister, and the Monarch when issues within their portfolio are poised to become more extensive in scope. To manage day-to-day control over the individual Ministries within their portfolios, First Ministers are permitted to appoint subordinate Ministers.
