Comptroller of the Household

Comptroller of the Household er et gammelt embete i den britiske monarkens husholdning. Comptrolleren er den nest høyest rangerte i Lord Stewards avdeling, og er ofte kabinettmedlem. Tidligere var han ex officio medlem av Board of Green Cloth, inntil det ble avskaffet som del av en reform i 2004.

Comptroller er en gammel stavemåte av controller, som er kjent fra flere britiske siden omkring 1500, og fra senere amerikanske titler.

I moderne tid har Comtroller hatt en lite fremtredende rolle i britisk politikk. Han er en av regjeringens innpiskere i Underhuset (Storbritannia). Hans ansvar for den kongelige husholdning er rent nominell, bortsett fra at han til tider kan bli innkalt for å motta gjester under kongelige hageselskap.

Pr. 2007 er Thomas McAvoy Comtroller of the Household.
