Ministers are accountable to Parliament for the policies, decisions and actions of their departments. Parliamentarians have direct access to Ministers, and any information they require from the department should be provided by Ministers.

This is intended to ensure that only accurate and releasable information is provided and that Ministers can assure themselves of that before it is released.
