The first hour of every parliamentary sitting is devoted to ______, during which members ask questions and ministers give answers.
- Zero Hour
- Question Hour
- Legislative Business
- Budget Discussion
Answer: Question Hour
Question Hour (first hour of sitting) allows MPs to ask questions (starred, unstarred, short notice) to ministers about administration. Zero Hour (informal, post-Question Hour) allows raising urgent matters without prior notice. Both are crucial tools for executive accountability and public grievance redressal.
