I mean ... most countries are run by some sort of committee hierarchy / supervisor chain. Having consulted at many different levels of govt. over here in Europe, I can tell you there are way more committee decisions than Executive directives.

In many cases, the executives / politicians / directors just rubber stamp what a working group / committee has decided.
