Khác biệt giữa bản sửa đổi của “Hệ thống Westminster”

The [[head of government]], usually called the [[prime minister]] or [[premier]], will ideally have the support of a majority in the responsible house, and must in any case be able to ensure the existence of no [[absolute majority]] against the government. If the parliament passes a [[vote of no confidence|resolution of no confidence]], or refuses to pass an important [[Bill (proposed law)|bill]] such as the [[budget]], then the government must either resign so that a different government can be appointed or seek a [[dissolution of parliament|parliamentary dissolution]] so that new general elections may be held in order to re-confirm or deny the government's mandate.

 

 

As an example, the Prime Minister and Cabinet (as the [[de facto]] executive body in the system) generally must seek the permission of the head of state when carrying out executive functions. If, for instance the [[British Prime Minister]] wished to [[dissolution of parliament|dissolve parliament]] in order for a [[general election]] to take place, the Prime Minister is constitutionally bound to request permission from the [[British monarchy|sovereign]] in order to attain such a wish. This power (along with others such as appointing [[Minister (government)|minister]]s in the government, appointing [[diplomat]]s, declaring [[war]], and signing [[treaties]], for example) are known as the [[Royal Prerogative]], which in modern times are exercised by the sovereign solely on the [[Advice (constitutional)|advice]] of the Prime Minister. Since the British sovereign is a [[constitutional monarch]], he or she abides by the advice of his or her ministers, except when executing [[reserve power]]s in times of crisis.
