What is the difference between Parliament's law-making power and control over government?

Correct answer: Law-making passes bills and control asks answers from government

Direct answer: A is correct. Parliament has more than one important function. In law-making, members debate a proposed bill, suggest or consider amendments, and, when the required procedure is completed, pass it so that it can become law. In control of government, Parliament examines what the executive is doing. Members ask questions, discuss policies and expenditure, debate public issues, and may use motions or votes to hold ministers accountable. Thus, making laws creates rules for society, while control checks whether the government is acting properly and using public authority responsibly. A correctly distinguishes these functions. B is wrong because court judgments are decisions of the judiciary, not Parliament’s ordinary law-making or accountability work. C is wrong because Parliament is a public constitutional institution, not a private business. D is wrong because both functions are central democratic roles. Memory cue: Parliament makes rules and also asks the rule-makers to explain their actions.
