Center of government

The center of government (CoG) is the institution or group of institutions that provide direct support to the chief executive (president or prime minister) in leading the management of government.[1] Unlike line ministries and other government agencies, the CoG does not deliver services directly to the citizens, and it does not focus on a specific policy area.[2] On the contrary, the CoG performs cross-government functions. A similar concept is "Core Executive".[3]
