The Executive Council is the former title of the [[Council of Ministers of the Isle of Man|Council of Ministers]], the principal executive body of the [[Isle of Man Government]].  Its chairman was the [[Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Man|Lieutenant Governor]] until 1980, when he was replaced by a [[Chairman of the Executive Council|Chairman]] elected by Tynwald. The Chairman was renamed ''[[Chief Minister of the Isle of Man|Chief Minister]]'' in 1986, and the council was renamed ''[[Council of Ministers of the Isle of Man|Council of Ministers]]'' in 1990.
The Executive Council was established following the 1949 General Election, "to assist the [[Lieutenant Governor of the Isle of Man|Lieutenant Governor]] in the performance of his duties", as successor to an executive committee of Tynwald which was set up in 1946.<ref>Letter from United Kingdom Home Office to Lieutenant Governor, 20 February 1946, cited in Report of the Joint Working Party on the Constitutional Relationship between the Isle of Man and the United Kingdom (the 'Stonham Report'), 1969, at p.29.</ref>  The Council originally consisted of the two members of the House of Keys and the following five members:
