== Government and Politics == | |||
The Australian Government is made up of three key branches, being the Executive, Legislature and Judiciary. These three branches intertwine and interact, forming the foundation of Australian Governance and Politics. | |||
==== Executive ==== | |||
The Executive is comprised of two main features, being the Commonwealth Government and the President. The Commonwealth Government is led by the Prime Minister, who appoints Ministers to serve in Cabinet. The Commonwealth Government is responsible for developing government policy, enforcing Parliamentary legislation and administering the day-to-day business of the nation. The President acts as the Head of State, which mostly serves a ceremonial role in Australia, although appoints and swears in the Government. | |||
==== Legislature ==== | |||
The Legislature is comprised of the Commonwealth Parliament, which holds elections every two months to elect Members of Parliament. These Members represent Australians in Government, drafting and proposing legislation to be voted on by other MP's. Political Parties require a majority support within Parliament to form Government, with Government being formed in the House of Representatives, the only current house in the Parliament. | |||
==== Judiciary ==== | |||
The Judiciary is comprised of the High Court of Australia, which interprets the Australian Constitution, and enforces Australian Law at the highest level. The High Court is responsible for holding the Commonwealth Government and Parliament accountable to the Constitution and it's laws. It is headed by a Chief Justice, the longest serving member of the Court, as well as an odd numbered amount of Justices who sit alongside the Chief Justice. | |||
