During the council, the ministers present provided updates on political initiatives, inquiries, and ongoing legislation within their respective departments and answered questions.
Councils of State are held regularly and are led by the King. According to the Instrument of Government of 1974, the Prime Minister is responsible for ensuring that the Head of State is kept informed about matters concerning the nation. It is formally the King who convenes Councils of State, but the decision is made in consultation with the Prime Minister.
