The Cabinet Secretariat is responsible for supporting the Cabinet and its committees in their decision-making processes. Its main functions include the preparation of the agenda for Cabinet meetings, providing secretarial assistance to Cabinet committees, and maintaining a record of Cabinet decisions. The Cabinet Secretariat is also involved in coordinating the implementation of Cabinet decisions and facilitating inter-ministerial coordination. However, the allocation of financial resources to the Ministries is not among the functions of the Cabinet Secretariat. This responsibility lies with the Ministry of Finance.
