There is no mention of an official Head of State in the Australian Constitution. Most people have historically regarded Queen Elizabeth as the Head of State, however, in recent years, some people have argued that the Governor-General could also be the Head of State, since he or she now exercises almost all of the Queen's powers in Australia. From the way the Australian Constitution is written, it seems more likely that the Queen is the actual Head of State, since the Governor-General is officially the Queen's representative in Australia.
