	Privy Council Office
		The Privy Council Office (PCO) is a prime minister's government department headed by the clerk designated (since 1940) secretary to the CABINET.
		In fact no specific statutory basis for most of its functions exists; the bulk of its activities are conducted pursuant to the unwritten, conventional authority of the PRIME MINISTER and the Cabinet.
		Although the PCO has its own minister (President of the Privy Council), it can be said that the PCO is the prime minister's administrative agency for dealing with the collective concerns as head of government.
