Interim Minister’s Penal Liability

There are three distinctive authorities stipulated in all constitutions: the legislative authority, the executive authority, and the judicial authority. Each authority performs its role as stipulated in the Constitution. The executive authority is considered the actual authority in the parliamentary system, i.e. all executive powers are exercised under the leadership of the Prime Minister, consequently; there is an actual minister for each ministerial portfolio. In all systems, the position of the minister is considered the cornerstone in managing the affairs of the ministry, especially in drawing up its general policy. Indeed, the minister represents his ministry before all authorities in the state, not to mention his primary representation before the Parliament since it is the entity that grants him confidence after taking the constitutional oath. While taking office, the minister holds responsibility for all his actions and deeds.
