10 downing street - Paris : IIAP, juil./sept. 1997
The powers of the Prime Minister are not inscribed in the constitution and depend upon the degree of use made of the Prime Minister's sources of support. Amongst these sources the office of the Prime Minister forms an unavoidable part of the decision making-process. The multiplication of its tasks has been relentless and it functions by way of a notable absence of formalism. This structure, which is of a modest size, seems to be adapted to the collegial style of government, but the need remains for a more centralised coordination of the decision-making process
