 Prime Minister - Encyclopedia.WorldSearch   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-26)
In some monarchies the prime minister exercises powers (known as the Royal Prerogative) that are constitutionally vested in the monarch and which can be exercised without the approval of parliament.
Prime Ministers can be found in both constitutional monarchies (as is the case in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Norway and Japan), and in republics, where the head of state is an elected or unelected official with varying degrees of real power.
Contrary to popular and journalistic myth, most prime ministers in parliamentary systems are not appointed for a specific term of office and in effect may remain in power through a number of elections and parliaments.

The Minister acted totally outside his powers to protect the project from government oversight by over-ruling a decision of the National Forest Board, instructing the National Forest Service to follow his illegitimate orders, and issuing instructions to stop a process to close this blatantly illegal logging project.
It is critical that as PNG's Prime Minister you sack the Forest Minister, commit to expelling criminal logging enterprises such as Rimbunan Hijau - the details to be determined through a Commission of Inquiry, and transition all forest management to community based eco-forestry supplemented with carbon offset payments.
