Abstract: Let $G$ be a connected compact Lie group, $T$ a maximal torus of $G$, $N = N_G(T)$ its normalizer and $W = N/T$ the Weyl group of $G$. We show that the outer automorphism group of $N$ canonically decomposes as a semidirect product, where the normal subgroup is given by the cohomology group $H^1(W;T)$
