A cabinet-parliamentary system is applicable in Great Britain. Great Britain is a parliamentary monarchy. The royal throne is hereditary. From 1952 on the English throne for II Elizabeth from the dynasty Windsor is seating itself. She is the head of state and the head of the Anglican church. He is included in competence of the monarch: convening and dissolving the parliament, appointing and dismissing ministers, appointing the Prime Minister, containing and ratifying international agreements, declaring war, prerogative of mercy, sending knighthoods. In practice however the queen cannot fulfil her competence. The monarch isn’t bearing responsibility for legal documents issued by oneself. A right minister which signed them is incurring her (countersignature). The queen is performing the role representative and integrating the British society and the state.
The British parliament is bicameral and is composed of the House of Lords (the upper house) and House of Commonses (the lower house). The House of Commons is being chosen in the general election on 5 years term of office, by citizens having the right to vote (finished 18 year of age). The House of Lords isn’t being chosen. Persons having a hereditary title are seating themselves in it (not lower than the title of the baron) and persons on which the title of the baron was conferred without the right to inherit, as well as Lords Spiritual and lords by vocation, appointed by the queen. Tasks of the House of Commons are focused on fulfilling the legislative and test function towards the government. Only Members of Parliament have a right of legislative initiative.
A sublation of notions of the government and the study is a distinctive feature of the British political system. The government consists of about 100 people. However a Prime Minister and 20 ministers are included in a study. The government is never gathering in the full complement. Fundamental decisions in matters of state are being made by the study. It is he is managing the whole of the state apparatus, with foreign policy, is preparing bills. Politically the government is responsible before the House of Commons. A party which in choices gained the majority of votes is building the study. For her the leader is staying with Prime Minister. The study can offer the dissolution of parliament in the any time to the queen. Political relations among the parliament and the study, are indicating it to the majority last, hence also a name of the British system – cabinet-parliamentary.
