How do parliamentary questions keep control over policy decisions?

Correct answer: Ministers must answer about a policy, its reasons, progress and implementation.

Correct answer: A. In Parliament, Question Hour gives members an opportunity to ask ministers about government policies and their implementation. The minister has to provide information and explain the government’s position. This makes the executive answerable to the legislature and helps Parliament check whether a decision is being carried out properly. A is correct because questions demand an official explanation and may reveal delays, mistakes or misuse of authority. B is wrong because voters are citizens, not officials summoned to court for Question Hour. C is wrong because election symbols are connected with election administration, not parliamentary questioning. D is wrong because the media may inform and scrutinise the public, but it does not pass laws. Memory cue: Question Hour means “ask, explain and remain accountable.”
