Question:

What is the Australian government?

Gobernador General

Gobierno
El poder Ejecutivo de la Comunidad recae en un gobernador general (que representa la soberanía británica) y un gabinete, presidido por el primer ministro, lo que representa el partido o coalición con mayoría en la cámara baja del parlamento. El Parlamento se compone de dos casas. La distribución de los poderes federales y estatales es más o menos igual que en los Estados Unidos. La intervención británica en los asuntos de Australia fue oficialmente abolida en 1986. Desde sus primeros años el gobierno federal se ha caracterizado por su legislación liberal, como el sufragio de la mujer (1902), las pensiones de vejez (1909), y las prestaciones de maternidad (1912). Hay cuatro principales partidos políticos: Liberal, de Trabajo, Nacional y Democrática

legislatura

Legislatura
Poder Legislativo Nacional, en Australia se deposita en un parlamento bicameral, compuesto de un Senado y una Cámara de Representantes. El Senado se compone de 76 miembros (12 de cada estado y 2 de cada territorio). Los senadores de los estados son de elección popular para un mandato de seis años bajo una forma de representación proporcional; senadores de los territorios son elegidos para períodos de tres años. Según la constitución australiana, la Cámara debe tener aproximadamente el doble de tantos miembros como el Senado. El número de miembros de cada estado es proporcional a su población, sino que debe ser de al menos cinco años. A mediados del decenio de 1990 la Cámara había 148 miembros, elegidos por el pueblo a una pena de hasta tres años. El primer ministro puede pedir al gobernador general para disolver la Cámara y convocar nuevas elecciones en cualquier momento. Australia tiene el sufragio universal y obligatoria para todos los ciudadanos mayores de 18 años.
