English term or phrase: accountable (see context)

Un artículo sobre la historia de las elecciones y los diferentes sistemas. Aquí habla del sistema parlamentario:

The advantage to this form of governance has to be more accountable than a presidential system, since power is not divided. In this type of system it is easier for voters to tell who is responsible for inaction. However, the main criticisms is that the head of the government cannot be directly voted on or chosen by the people, like in a presidential system, and there is a lack of separation of power.

Ya no sé que vuelta darle a la primera oración. ¿¿Alguien tiene alguna sugerencia??
