Interpellation (politics)
Interpellation is a formal parliamentary procedure through which members of parliament request that the government explain, clarify, or justify its policies, actions, or decisions. Typically presented in written or oral form, this process mandates that the government respond within a specified timeframe and may lead to subsequent debates or even votes of no confidence. The primary objectives of interpellation are to ensure governmental accountability—upholding the principles of responsible government—as well as to monitor the exercise of executive power and safeguard against its abuse while promoting transparency and public participation in policy deliberations. Interpellation in parliamentary politics can be traced back to Latin and French.

This is in contrast to a presidential system, which features a president who is not fully accountable to the legislature, and cannot be replaced by a simple majority vote.
