摘要

質詢權係指立法機關針對行政機關的施政情形、政策方針、工作報告或其他重要事項等作為，以書面或口頭的方式向其提出疑問或質問，要求行政機關答覆之權力。經過地方行政首長與立法機關的民選和地方自治發展，質詢權已然成為地方議會權力行使之主要職權。而臺北市為我國「首善之都」，各項自治發展與政策制定易成為各縣市之借鏡，因此本論文將藉由研究臺北市議會行使質詢權之功能時，對於臺北市政府的影響性。
本研究旨在調查臺北市府會對於質詢權在功能上的看法，並探討府會對於此質詢權之功能是否有認知上的差異性，做出有別於以往研究質詢權時針對法制面或程序面上的探討，而主要是功能面的討論。過程將以政治系統中的功能設計變項，透過問卷調查研究，並將此問卷結果以橫斷法分析各變項的異同處。
研究發現臺北市地方立法機關行使質詢權時，會受到內在與外在社會環境之影響，而根據臺北市府會受訪者之意見，可看出質詢權具有政治系統中輸入項、轉換過程、輸出項以及反饋這些變項中的部分功能。接著建議有關制度之研究應加入功能面來探討，由功能面看出制度面之缺陷，並對於現行法規制度做出更改，以及加強政策執行的必須性與強制性，強化政策執行之道。最後說明由臺北市地方立法機關質詢權的功能研究，衍生為對各項府會互動權力之研究，並擴及各地方府會和中央府會關係，皆可透過功能之分析，建立解決府會衝突之機制。
