About This Book

This study presents a systematic description of the English governmental system as it stood at the time of writing, focusing on national institutions and the forces that sustain them. It analyzes the Crown and its relations with the Cabinet and ministers; the organization and functions of executive departments, the Treasury and the permanent civil service; parliamentary structure and procedure in the House of Commons and House of Lords, including legislation, committees, money bills and closure; and the party system, local party organization and political associations. Emphasis is placed on the interaction of legal rules and constitutional conventions and on how institutional practice adapts to democratic change.
