New Query

Information
has glosseng: At Her Majestys pleasure (His Majesty when appropriate, sometimes abbreviated to Queens Pleasure) is a legal term of art derived from the fact that the authority for all governance stems from the Crown. Originating from the United Kingdom, it is now used throughout the Commonwealth realms, though usually in a traditional manner. In realms where the monarch is represented by a viceroy, the phrase may be modified to be at the Governors pleasure, since the Governor-General, Governor, or Lieutenant Governor is the Queens personal agent in the country. In nations under a presidential form of government, the phrase has been adapted to suit the title of the chief executive.
