It shall scrupulously observe the provisions of this Constitution, as well as such particular directives in conformity therewith as the King may instruct. The matters of business shall be decided by voting, where in the event of the votes being equal, the Prime Minister, or in his absence the highest-ranking Member of the Council of State who is present, shall have two votes.
