Cevap

The correct answer is correct because the state and territory governments are responsible for maintaining public safety (police and prisons) and managing regional transportation networks (railways) within their borders.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the scope of the services listed in each option.
The options present services at different levels of government: national, regional, and local.
Identifying the level of government for each service is necessary to isolate state/territory responsibilities.
2
Evaluate the services related to national defense, quarantine, and passports.
These are matters of national interest handled by the Federal Government.
Constitutional powers over trade, borders, and defense are federal, not state.
3
Evaluate services related to waste collection, local parks, and building permits.
These are community-level services handled by Local Governments (City or Shire councils).
Local governments manage the immediate environment and municipal services.
4
Evaluate the services of state police, prisons, and railways.
These are the primary regional responsibilities delegated to State and Territory Governments.
States manage their own legal enforcement systems and major transport infrastructure.
