The Legislature performs several important functions in a political system. Its primary role is law-making, which includes drafting, debating, and passing laws. It also exercises control over the executive by asking questions, holding discussions, and approving budgets. The Legislature represents public interests by voicing citizens’ concerns and demands. Additionally, it has financial powers such as approving taxes and government expenditure. In many systems, it also participates in constitutional amendments and discusses national and international issues, making it central to democratic governance.
