The Government of Wiltshire, formally the Government of the Fourth Wiltshire Republic, is the central government of the Fourth Wiltshire Republic. It is also commonly referred to as the Wiltshirian Government, the National Assembly Government, or the Federal Government.

The government is led by the Prime Minister of Wiltshire, who selects all other ministers. The Prime Minister and their most senior ministers belong to the supreme decision-making committee, known as the Cabinet. The government ministers all sit in the Wiltshire National Assembly, and are accountable to it. The government is dependent on the Assembly to make primary legislation, and so is elected through the legislative elections which occur following the dissolution of the National Assembly. Following the legislative elections, the President of Wiltshire (currently Gaius Selan) appoints the Prime Minister to form the government. The Prime Minister requires the confidence of the President and the National Assembly (through majority support).

According to the Wiltshire constitution, executive power lies with the President. However, the President empowers the government to exercise the running of the country. This is done in the name of the President. Members of the cabinet unite with the President's Secretaries to form the Privy Council, a unified advisory council of government ministers, Presidentially appointed secretaries and the Prime Minister.

The current Prime Minister is Sonya Inyo who leads a coalition government, comprising Liberal Conservative Party and the Stability Party of Wiltshire. Inyo took office on 27 September 3020.

Cabinet

The cabinet of the Fourth Wiltshire Republic is the senior advisory and decision making body for the government. Chaired by the Prime Minister, the cabinet is responsible for the execution of government business with members being granted different portfolios. Members of the cabinet are called Ministers. The current cabinet is that of the Sonya Inyo Ministry.

The cabinet is a separate body to the President's Privy Council, however, all members of the cabinet are invited to be members of the Privy Council. The Privy Council, in contrast to the cabinet, is the chief advisory board to the President of Wiltshire.

Shadow Cabinet

The largest non-government party in the National Assembly forms the shadow cabinet. Led by the Leader of the Opposition, the shadow cabinet directly scrutinizes the work of ministers in the cabinet and drafts policy proposals to compare directly to that of the government.

The current shadow cabinet was formed by Sonya Inyo when she was elected Leader of the Liberal Conservative Party in June 3020.

On 20 August 3020, there was a re-organization of devolved government in Wiltshire.
