Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. debate and approve or reject bills
1. Legislation means making law, which is the work of the Legislature.
2. Members of Parliament discuss bills presented to them, then approve or reject them.
3. Assenting to a bill is the President's act, so it belongs to the Executive.
4. Enforcing laws once passed is likewise an Executive function.
5. Initiating sectoral policies is also Executive work, so three of the four options describe the wrong branch of government.
