Cevap

Parliamentary Oversight pairs with debating reports, budget requests, and legislative inquiries; Ministerial Control pairs with issuing policy directives, board appointments, and approving capital projects; Judicial Control pairs with adjudicating suits and granting prerogative remedies for ultra vires actions; Financial Audit Oversight pairs with inspecting financial records to verify fiscal compliance.
Each mechanism of control corresponds to a specific institution: Parliament exercises legislative oversight via budget scrutiny and committee inquiries; Ministers exercise executive control through policy guidance and board oversight; Courts exercise judicial control by penalizing ultra vires acts; Auditors exercise fiscal control by inspecting corporate accounts.
