Detailed Solution

In a democracy, there are delays in decision-making because democracy is based on the ideas of deliberation and negotiation.
A democratic government relies on the concepts of deliberation and negotiation because the government is responsible to the voters and tuned in to the wants and expectations of the voters. The voters in a democratic country wish to know if a decision was made through the proper procedures or not. They are given the right and means to scrutinise the method of decision-making. This is called transparency. This is commonly missing from a non-democratic government. In this respect, a democratic government is superior to its alternatives; it is slow in decision-making, but it is the people’s government because it works for the betterment of the people.
