from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Logo of the Federal Chancellery

The following list shows the state secretaries at the Federal Chancellery , the authority of the head of government of the Republic of Austria .

Function and position

Secretaries are as Federal Minister in the new government ordered not belong formally to the federal government , but take part in the Ministerial meetings as part of consultative bodies. In accordance with Article 70 paragraph 1 in conjunction with Article 78 paragraph 2 of the Federal Constitutional Act , they are appointed by the Federal President and assigned to the respective member of the government for support in management and for parliamentary representation.

The areas of responsibility and competence are determined by the department heads. Usually entrusted with a specialist section at the ministries, the state secretaries at the Chancellery take on various business that fall within the scope of the Federal Chancellor , i.e. tasks of particular political importance (“top-level matters”). State secretaries have no authority to issue instructions , so the state secretaries of the Chancellery are directly subordinate to the Federal Chancellor or an authorized minister of the Chancellery .
In the case of a coalition government , the State Secretary often comes from a different party than the Federal Chancellor (political occupation) and thus also ensures the inter-coalition balance.

Official seat

The State Secretaries not officiate directly at the Federal Chancellery on Ballhausplatz but traditionally - as well as the Chancellery Minister  - in the main floor of the Amalie tract of the Imperial Palace , where the Austrian Federal President resides.
