The Library of Parliament defines question period as follows;
This closely watched 45 minutes is a chance for opposition Members, and sometimes Members of the governing party, to seek information from the government. In a strict legal sense, “the government” is the Prime Minister and the other Cabinet Ministers. The Cabinet determines priorities and policies, ensures their implementation, and presents legislation to Parliament for approval. By questioning the Prime Minister and the other Cabinet Ministers, Members can call the government to account for its actions.
