Cabinet members serve at the pleasure of the President. This means they can be appointed or dismissed by the President at any time. There is no fixed term for cabinet members, and their tenure typically aligns with the President’s term in office. However, they may continue to serve until a successor is confirmed, even if the President’s term ends. Cabinet members can also resign or be removed from office by the President. Their service duration is therefore flexible and depends on the President’s discretion and the political climate.
