The ’s in “government’s” (ref. 1) is the contraction of is.
The preposition “for” (ref. 2) introduces the start of a period of time.
The verb form “given’ (ref. 3) is in the Simple Past tense.
The verb “grant” (ref. 4) is the same as prohibit.
The adjective “best” (ref. 5) is the superlative of good.
