16 August 2008 what is "PRIVY COUNCIL"?

17 August 2008 A privy council is a body that advises the head of state of a respective nation, typically, but not always, in the context of a monarchic government.

The word "privy" means "private" or "secret" thus a privy council was originally a committee of the monarch's closest advisors to give confidential advice on affairs of state.

In non-monarchical nations (e.g. the United States) the equivalent body is the "cabinet" although some nations have both a privy council organized around the monarch and a cabinet organized around the prime minister, such as the United Kingdom although in this case the Cabinet is technically a committee of the Privy Council.
