Chief Minister of the Northern Territory of Australia
In Australia, a Chief Minister is the head of government of a self-governing territory, while the head of government of a state is a Premier.
The Chief Minister is appointed by the Administrator of the Northern Territory, who in normal circumstances will appoint the head of whatever party holds the majority of seats in the legislature of the territory (in the Northern Territory, the Legislative Assembly). However, in times of constitutional crisis the Administrator can appoint someone else as Chief Minister.
