Constitutional Conventions The Rules and Forms of Political Accountability

In Britain and other commonwealth countries, it is convention rather than law that determines many crucial questions of government behavior. This timely volume examines these major conventions and practices, including rules governing the activities of the Cabinet, the Prime Minister, and the Crown; the doctrines of collective and individual responsibilities of ministers and to Parliament; and the principles of accountability applicable to public servants.Marshall, Geoffrey is the author of 'Constitutional Conventions The Rules and Forms of Political Accountability' with ISBN 9780198762027 and ISBN 019876202X.
