First Minister

The First Minister is the top government leader in a devolved region, such as Scotland or Wales, responsible for overseeing the regional government and its policies. They are chosen by the regional parliament and represent the region both domestically and internationally. The First Minister sets the government's agenda, leads decision-making, and works closely with other officials to implement laws and programs that affect their region. Essentially, they serve as the head of the regional government, similar to a prime minister but on a regional level within a larger country.
