State Chancellery and Ministry of Culture

The State Chancellery is the "authority" of the Prime Minister. It supports the head of government in defining and implementing the political guidelines and in his function as representative of the country. This is where all the threads of government and administrative work converge. The State Chancellery is also directly responsible for overarching tasks such as media policy, European policy, and international cooperation or the preparation of conferences for heads of government at federal and state level.

Since April 2016, the State Chancellery is responsible for the field of culture and in charge of cultural policy and cultural promotion.
