Who decides on a new law in Germany?

Why is this answer correct?

Laws are passed by parliament, at federal level by the Bundestag with the involvement of the Bundesrat (Article 77 of the Basic Law). The government introduces bills, the courts apply the laws, and the police enforce them.

Parliament passes the laws, not the government.
