• P and Q

• Q and S

• R and S

Answer 1

Q and R

Explanation:

This is because Statements Q (introducing 95% of Bills) and R (answering parliamentary questions) are directly related to lawmaking and parliament, making them Legislative powers. In contrast, Statement P is a Financial power (expenditure) and Statement S is an Executive function (advising the President).
