The Westminster system is a
democratic,
parliamentary system of government modelled after that of the
United Kingdom system, as used in the
Palace of Westminster, the location of the
Parliament of the United Kingdom. The system is a series of procedures for operating a
legislature. It is used, or was once used, in the national legislatures and/or
sub-national legislatures of most
Commonwealth and ex-Commonwealth nations, beginning with the
Canadian provinces in the mid-
19th century. It is also used in
Australia,
India,
Ireland,
Jamaica,
Malaysia,
New Zealand,
Singapore and
Malta. There are other
parliamentary systems, whose procedures differ considerably from the Westminster system.
