國王會同樞密院

國王會同樞密院或國王會同行政局（King-in-Council）是英聯邦王國憲法術語，指國家的最高行政機構行使國家行政權，女性君主在位時稱女王會同樞密院或女王會同行政局（Queen-in-Council）。

英語術語中的「Council」在英國和加拿大聯邦政府指樞密院（Privy Council），在其他英聯邦王國和自治州、省（包括加拿大各省）及屬土指相應的行政局或行政會議（Executive Council）。此術語的直接含義是君主以並按照他（她）的樞密院或行政局的建議及准許行使權力。

簡介

在英國君主直接或間接任命總督、省／州督等代表君主行使行政權的王國及屬土，則「國王會同樞密院」或「行政局」改爲「總督（省／州督）會同樞密院」或「總督（省／州督）會同行政局」（Governor-General-in-Council / Lieutenant-Governor-in-Council / Governor-in-Council等）。在大多數地方，「某地政府」可以作爲當地「君主／總督會同樞密院／行政局」的代名詞使用（但「某地政府」在不同地方也有其他涵義）。

實際上，國王會同樞密院／行政局幾乎毫無例外的實行內閣的決議。內閣是樞密院或行政局下屬的非正式委員會，由資深部長（大臣）組成，通常國王或總督不參加內閣的會議。

國王會同樞密院／行政局發出的命令稱爲「樞密令」或「行政局令」，這類行政命令受司法檢察監督。^[1]一些二級立法經由樞密院/行政局令生效。

在取消君主制的前王國或前屬地，有時當地憲政架構會保留類似的概念，例如印度的「總統會同行政局」^[2]^[3]或香港的「行政長官會同行政會議」^[4]。在一些非英聯邦王國也有類似的概念^[5]。
