How is a major policy decision taken?

Correct answer: A. Because policy design, political decision, resources and implementation may all be responsible

A policy is usually the result of several connected stages, so failure may have more than one cause. The policy may have been designed on weak evidence, approved without proper political judgment, given too few resources, or implemented poorly by administration. Communication, coordination, monitoring, and local conditions may also affect results. Holding only one official responsible can therefore hide earlier decisions or wider institutional problems and may prevent a useful correction.

This does not mean officials have no responsibility; they remain answerable for the work under their authority. The point is that accountability should examine the whole chain: design, decision, funding, administration, implementation, and review. Hence option A is correct because policy failure can arise from political choices, resources, design, and execution together.

Correct answer: A. Its impact may be wrong or unbalanced

A policy should be based on reliable information about the problem, the people affected, available resources, and likely results. If decision-makers act in a hurry without enough evidence, they may misunderstand the situation or overlook important groups and risks. The policy could then distribute benefits unfairly, waste public money, fail to solve the real problem, or create new difficulties. Good policy-making usually requires collecting evidence, consulting relevant people, comparing alternatives, and reviewing possible effects before implementation.

Option A is correct because a hurried, poorly informed policy may have a wrong or unbalanced impact. Option B is false because speed does not guarantee success. Option C is constitutionally impossible as a general claim: no policy can be above the Constitution. Option D is also false because public policies normally affect people, even when their effects are unintended. Evidence-based decision-making improves the chance of fair and effective results.

Correct answer: A. Detailed study and expert review become possible

A parliamentary committee allows a proposed policy or Bill to receive closer attention than may be possible in a brief general debate. Members can examine its details, identify practical difficulties, ask for information, and consider views from specialists or affected groups. This improves the quality of legislative discussion and can lead to useful recommendations.

The committee does not change election results, make President's Rule permanent, or turn the judiciary into part of Parliament. Its main role is scrutiny and advice within the parliamentary process. Thus detailed study and expert review become possible, so option A is correct. Committee examination supports informed law-making, although its recommendations may not automatically become law.

Correct answer: A. Problem identification, study, consultation, Cabinet decision, order, implementation, and review

A major policy decision is usually not made in one sudden step. First, a public problem is identified. Officials and experts may study its causes and possible solutions. The government can then consult affected groups, citizens or specialists. After considering the information, the Cabinet takes a decision. The decision is communicated through an official order or law, followed by implementation through departments and agencies. Its results should later be reviewed.

Option A gives this complete and logical sequence: problem identification, study, consultation, Cabinet decision, order, implementation and review. The other options list unrelated activities and do not show how public policy is prepared or carried out. The exact process may differ by policy, but this sequence correctly explains the main institutional chain in a comprehensive way.
