The cabinet secretary used to also hold the position of the permanent secretary of the <a href="/wiki/Cabinet_Office" title="Cabinet Office">Cabinet Office</a>, but this has been passed to the chief executive of the civil service.

In most cases the true influence of the cabinet secretary extends far beyond administrative matters, and reaches to the very heart of the decision-making process. For instance, the cabinet secretary is responsible for administering the <a href="/wiki/Ministerial_Code" title="Ministerial Code">Ministerial Code</a> which governs the conduct of ministers (also known as <i>the Rule Book</i> and formerly <i>Questions of Procedure for Ministers</i>). In this duty the cabinet secretary may be asked to investigate leaks within government, and enforce Cabinet discipline. Unusually in a democracy, this gives the unelected cabinet secretary some authority over elected ministers (a situation satirised in the <a href="/wiki/BBC" title="BBC">BBC</a> <a href="/wiki/Sitcom" title="Sitcom">sitcom</a> <i><a href="/wiki/Yes,_Prime_Minister" class="mw-redirect" title="Yes, Prime Minister">Yes, Prime Minister</a></i>), although the constitutional authority of the code is somewhat ambiguous. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Intelligence">Intelligence</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Cabinet_Secretary_(United_Kingdom)&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Intelligence"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The cabinet secretary is responsible for overseeing the intelligence services and their relationship to the government, though since 2002 this responsibility has been delegated to a full-time role (initially as <a href="/wiki/Security_and_Intelligence_Co-ordinator" title="Security and Intelligence Co-ordinator">Security and Intelligence Co-ordinator</a>, now the <a href="/wiki/National_Security_Adviser_(United_Kingdom)" title="National Security Adviser (United Kingdom)">National Security Adviser</a>), with the cabinet secretary focussing on civil service reforms to help deliver the government's policy programme. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Appointment">Appointment</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Cabinet_Secretary_(United_Kingdom)&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Appointment"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Previously the Cabinet Secretary was appointed on the advice of the outgoing incumbent.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The 2024 appointment process consisted of shortlisted candidates took "leadership assessments" and an interview chaired by the First Civil Service Commissioner <a href="/wiki/Gisela_Stuart" title="Gisela Stuart">Gisela Stuart</a>, <a href="/wiki/Brian_McBride_(businessman)" title="Brian McBride (businessman)">Brian McBride</a> (Lead Non Executive Director MoD, and Non-Executive member of the Civil Service Senior Leadership Committee), <a href="/w/index.php?title=Gus_O%E2%80%99Donnell&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Gus O’Donnell (page does not exist)">Gus O’Donnell</a> (former Cabinet Secretary) and Dame <a href="/wiki/Sharon_White_(businesswoman)" title="Sharon White (businesswoman)">Sharon White</a> (former Second Permanent Secretary at HM Treasury).
