Question: 1 / 50

What is one key responsibility of the Prime Minister?

To sign laws

To oversee the government

The responsibility to oversee the government is a fundamental role of the Prime Minister. This encompasses managing the operations of government departments, setting governmental priorities, and ensuring the implementation of policies. The Prime Minister acts as the head of government, coordinating the work of ministers and the civil service, and making crucial decisions regarding the country’s administration. While it’s true that the Prime Minister may play a role in signing laws, this act is typically ceremonial and does not encompass the broader scope of overseeing government operations. Conducting elections falls under the remit of the Electoral Commission and is not a direct responsibility of the Prime Minister, though they may influence the political landscape. Lastly, although the Prime Minister represents the monarchy in a constitutional sense, the primary duty remains focused on leading and managing the government, which is distinct from acting as a representative of the monarchy.
