Summary/Abstract: In Bulgarian society, there is a discussion about the importance, role, place and powers of the official government, including whether this institute should continue to exist after Bulgaria is a parliamentary republic. According to the Constitution, caretaker governments ensure the functioning of the executive power and the implementation of state policy, after it is impossible to form a regular government. They are not formed by the parties and coalitions in the Parliament, but are appointed by the president, with a limited term and a specific task - to prepare and hold early parliamentary elections. Although they are appointed by the head of state, they do not change his function as a balancing, equidistant body with neutral authority.
