Privy Council (Batavian Empire)

The Privy Council (sometimes refered to as Crown Council or Imperial Presidium) is a group of the top politicians in the Empire. The council convenes every week. The Emperor is the chair of the meetings, which are always conducted privately in the Imperial Palace of Amsterdam or Penryn Castle.
== Members of the Council ==
The Privy Council currently comprises 21 members, of which, besides the Emperor who presides over the council, 14 permanent members and 7 additional members who were appointed by imperial decree. The permanent members include the Prime-Minister, Deputy Prime-Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister of National Affairs, Minister of Defence, Minister of Finance, Speaker Pro Tempore of the Senate, Speaker of the House of Consuls, Leader of the House of Consuls, Leader of the Opposition, Senate Majority Leader, Grand Ambassador, Chief Justice and Chancellor of Amsterdam. The six additional members are the Chief Baron, Education Minister, Governors of North-England, Transylvania and East-Britain (the latter simultaneously the former Prime-Minister), and the Senator for Amsterdam (at-large). 
 
All former Privy Council members are members ex-officio, except the former Chief Justices and non-permanent members that resign their membership.
