Abstract

The article analyzes the features of government accountability to Parliament in the UK. The recognition by constitutional agreements of individual and collective forms of government accountability to parliament is noted. Such forms of parliamentary control as a vote of no confidence, a resolution of censure, questions and debates, the activities of special committees and commissioners are considered in more detail. It is noted that the legal regulation of these forms of control is often not detailed and imperative, and party solidarity in the House of Commons can minimize their effect. However, in general, the role of the parliamentary responsibility of the government in the UK is of great importance due to the leverage of the principle of separation of powers and the peculiarities of the political culture of this country.
