Public Law: Improving accountability of ministers in Parliament?

I am trying to understand how we can 'improve accountability' in government, and the following answers have been suggested... but I have no idea why.


Encourage coalition government? -
A codified convention? -
‘Independent’ investigation (Blunkett) and adjudication?
Reforms in the Commons (Wright Committee)
Electoral reform?
Unelected accountability institutions


I simply can't understand why a coalition government will create a more accountable government. (By accountable, I mean, more MPs accepting the blame etc).


Any help would be appreciated, thanks! x
