The new prime minister can then form a new cabinet and submit it for royal endorsement. The new leader will also present the government 's policies to the House of Representatives, which the constitution requires to be done within 15 days of being sworn in.

According to caretaker Prime Minister Phumtham Wechayachai, Prime Minister-elect Paetongtarn will have the legal right and obligation to make political decisions and hold discussions with coalition partners to determine what is still appropriate in the current context. Therefore, ministerial positions in the new cabinet may not be subject to the previous quotas due to the end of the previous administration.

Meanwhile, caretaker Deputy Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul, head of the Bhumjaithai Party, the second-largest partner in the ruling coalition, said the party had informed the coalition leadership that it would not propose any changes to the party's current positions, including four ministerial posts and four deputy ministerial posts.
