The government section of the "Outline of Suriname" needs to be checked, corrected, and completed -- especially the subsections for the government branches.

When the country outlines were created, temporary data (that matched most of the countries but not all) was used to speed up the process. Those countries for which the temporary data does not match must be replaced with the correct information.

Please check that this country's outline is not in error.

If you have any questions or comments, please contact The Transhumanist .

Thank you.

Suriname's system of government is rather complicated, as while the President is elected by the National Assembly, they cannot be dismissed by it before the end of their term (per "Executive branch" section of this article; I've also browsed their Constitution and not found any provisions for their removal). So, is it really a parliamentary system? As a defining characteristic of such systems is that the entire cabinet, including the head of government (whether they're the chancellor, premier, president or prime minister), is held accountable to the parliament. The lead says the executive is held accountable to the Parliament, but I've seen no evidence of this. Fuse809 (contribs · email · talk · uploads) 12:59, 28 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
