Australia Now - Australia's System Of Government Australia s system of government is based on the liberal democratic tradition, The australian Constitution sets out the powers of government in three http://www.dfat.gov.au/facts/sys_gov.html
Extractions: Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Skip to content Today is St Kitts and Nevis Independence Day Australia's system of government is based on the liberal democratic tradition, which includes religious tolerance and freedom of speech and association. Its institutions and practices reflect British and North American models but are uniquely Australian. The Commonwealth of Australia was created in 1901 when former British colonies-now the six States-agreed to federate. Government is based on a popularly elected Parliament with two chambers, the House of Representatives and the Senate. Ministers appointed from these chambers conduct executive government. Policy decisions are made in Cabinet meetings. Apart from the announcement of decisions, Cabinet discussions are not disclosed. Ministers are bound by the principle of Cabinet solidarity. This closely follows the British model of Cabinet government responsible to Parliament. Although Australia is an independent nation, Queen Elizabeth II of Great Britain is also formally Queen of Australia. The Queen appoints a Governor-General (on the advice of the elected Australian Government) to represent her. The Governor-General has wide powers, but by convention acts only on the advice of ministers on virtually all matters.
