Material type: 
ArticlePublisher: Oxford : Blackwell Publishers Limited, March 1997Australian Journal of Public Administration 56, 1, p. 25-36Abstract: There is a sameness to writing on public accountability which does not always do justice to the subject. With responsability and acountability conflated and an idealised version of the Westminster model held up as the only test, ministers constantly appear irresponsible. Yet a more complex account of public accountability is possible, one which acknowledges that no single institution can undertake the important work of ensuring accountability from ministers, the parliament and public servants
