Can the decisions of the Cabinet be questioned?

  1. No, their decisions are final

  2. Yes, but only by the President or Monarch

  3. Yes, by all members of the House of Commons

  4. Yes, but only in court

The correct answer is: Yes, by all members of the House of Commons

The decisions of the Cabinet can only be questioned by members of the House of Commons, not by the President, Monarch or in court. This is because the Cabinet is accountable to Parliament, as they are appointed from among the members of Parliament. The option A and D are incorrect because the Cabinet's decisions are not final and can be questioned and challenged by elected representatives in the House of Commons. Option B is incorrect because while the President or Monarch may be involved in the decision-making process of the Cabinet, they do not have the power to question or overturn their decisions. Additionally, the House of Commons is the primary legislative body in the UK, making it the appropriate authority to question the decisions of the Cabinet.
