4. ЗАДАНИЯ ДЛЯ САМОСТОЯТЕЛЬНОЙ РАБОТЫ (156 часов) UNIT 1 THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT The British Government consists of the Prime Minister and other ministers, all of whom are collectively responsible for every part of the Government’s administration. All the members are appointed, formally, by the Queen, but she makes the appointment entirely on the Prime Minister’s advise. The Prime Minister effectively appoints the other ministers and may also require them to resign. All the ministers must be members of either the House of Commons or the House of Lords, and a minister may speak only in the House of which he is a member. Some of the ministers are entitled, for example, «Minister of Transport» but other officers have special titles, such as the Chancellor of the Exchequer (who presides over finance), the President of the Board of Trade and the Lord Chancellor (who presides over the administration of justice). There are several Secretaries of State in the British Government. They are the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, the Secretary of State for Scotland, the Secretary of State for Home Department, etc. The Cabinet consists of the heads of the most important Departments together with a few ministers without departments. The Prime Minister decides which ministers will be included. The Cabinet has only real powers and takes the effective decisions about what is to be done. The structure of the Government is frequently changed as new departments are set up or existing departments are merged.
