Executive Council - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (314 words)
An Executive Council in Commonwealth constitutional practice based on the Westminster system exercizes executive power and is the top tier of a government led by a Governor-General, Governor, Lieutenant-Governor or Administrator (all "governors").
Until the advent of responsible government, Executive Councils existed primarily to advise the governor of the colony, dominion or realm.
These Councils have almost the same functions as the Privy Council in the United Kingdom, and accordingly, decisions of the Cabinet gain legal effect by being formally adopted by the Executive Council.
