Who monitors the implementation of government decisions?

Correct answer: Government and administration

Direct answer: D, the government and administration. After a policy is approved, it must be converted into programmes, rules, budgets and services. Government departments and administrative officials distribute resources, issue instructions, coordinate agencies, keep records and check whether the decision is being carried out. Political ministers supervise the broad direction, while the administration handles much of the day-to-day implementation and reporting. A is too limited: citizens can observe, use services and raise complaints, but they do not alone monitor the whole process. B is also limited because the media may report and investigate, but it is not the official implementing authority. C is wrong because courts can intervene in legal disputes or constitutional questions, but they do not routinely administer every policy. Memory cue: ministers guide, administration implements, and democratic institutions supervise.
