There are different people whom have control in France. The top leader is the Prime Minister. "He "directs the actions of the Government' and in principle sets out the essential political guidelines which, except in the case of cohabitation, are those of the President of the Republic. He must also ensure the coordination of Government action and prevent different ministers from taking contradictory initiatives through his arbitration." He can't control the other ministers, if they do not agree with something they can say. The country votes for ministers for the Parliament. The ministers are the ones who pass the laws. They have to make sure it works with the constitution.
