valtioneuvostonministeriön

Valtioneuvoston ministeriö, commonly referred to as the Ministry of the Prime Minister's Office, is a Finnish government ministry dedicated to supporting the Prime Minister and the Government. Its core mission is to coordinate government policy, prepare and oversee Cabinet decisions, and provide administrative and strategic services to the Prime Minister and the Government as a whole.

Its tasks include policy coordination across ministries, planning and monitoring government programs, and managing official communications and information services. It also plays a central role in crisis management, security planning, and European Union and international affairs coordination in collaboration with other ministries. The ministry works to ensure coherence across the Government's activities and to support timely, informed decision-making.

In contemporary Finland, the Prime Minister's Office (valtioneuvoston kanslia) serves as the central administrative body that supports the Government; the term valtioneuvoston ministeriö is used in some contexts to refer to this ministry or its historical form. The exact structure and naming can vary with different governments, but the overall purpose remains to facilitate the functioning of the Government, coordinate cross-ministerial work, and maintain continuity of government operations.
