{{Main article|Cabinet of Puerto Rico}}

[[Article Four of the Constitution of Puerto Rico|Article IV]] of the [[Constitution of Puerto Rico]] establishes that the Governor shall be assisted by [[Minister (government)|Secretaries]] who shall collectively constitute the Governor's [[Adviser|advisory council]] and be designated as the ''Council of Secretaries'' although it's mostly referred to as the ''Cabinet''.

The Cabinet is composed by the '''Constitutional Cabinet''', composed by the Secretaries established by the Constitution, and the '''Operational Cabinet''', composed by the Secretaries established by extraconstitutional [[Puerto Rican law]] or appointed by the Governor. These Cabinets do not exist as agencies, but are referred as such in transcripts, records, official documents, and conversations for brevity and easiness.

All Cabinet members are nominated by the [[Governor of Puerto Rico|Governor]] and then presented to the [[Senate of Puerto Rico|Senate]] for [[advice and consent]] by a [[Majority|simple majority]]. If they are approved, they are sworn in and then begin their duties. All members receive the title of ''Secretary''.

Members of the Cabinet serve at the pleasure of the Governor, who may dismiss them or reappoint them (to other posts) at will.
