The Government of the Social Liberal Union consists of all offices of the Social Liberal Union that are created by the Constitution, created by Acts of Parliament, and created at the pleasure of officers of the Administration or for various fixed and semi-fixed terms. The principle bodies of the Government are the Administration and the Cabinet.

Legislative Branch

Main article: Open Parliament of the Social Liberal Union

The Legislative Branch of the Social Liberal Union government is composed of the sovereign Open Parliament, presided over by the Speaker of the Union, who represents the Member States in the Open Parliament before the Executive Branch as a constitutional attendee of Cabinet discussions with an infrequently-used right to cast a tie-breaking vote in Cabinet decisions. The Legislative Branch also consists of the Speaker pro tempore as the Speaker's constitutional deputy. Both the Speaker and the Speaker pro tempore are ex officio voting members of the Law Commission which oversees the Library of Parliament, an establishment within the Legislative Branch despite its involvement with the regulation of the practice of law in the region's Court of Justice. The Library of Parliament is staffed by the Speaker as chief administrative officer, a chief technical officer that hosts the Library, and appointed Librarians of Parliament who serve at the pleasure of the Speaker. For officers of the legislative branch, see Open Parliament.
