The Queen is to attend a cabinet meeting on Tuesday as an observer, Downing Street has announced.
It is believed to be the first time a monarch has attended cabinet since Queen Victoria's reign.
The cabinet, which meets weekly, will present her with a gift which they have bought to commemorate her Diamond Jubilee year.
She is expected to sit beside the prime minister for the regular meeting of the government's senior ministers.
While the Queen is head of state, her involvement in day-to-day political decisions is largely formal.
The prime minister visits her regularly for an audience where he updates her on events, while she is also expected to rubber-stamp ministerial decisions at meetings of the Privy Council.
The Queen plays a central ceremonial role in the state opening of Parliament, when she travels by ornate horse-drawn coach to the House of Lords to read out a speech prepared by ministers unveiling details of their legislative plans.
She also retains the power to appoint the prime minister.
