Home›Constitutional and Governmental Structure Acts›All Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsBrowse ByAll Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsReference and ClassificationVerifiedStatutes that create, restructure or dissolve the basic constitutional relationship between a government and its territory, or that transfer legislative or executive power between institutions. Belongs here: the Australia Act 1986, severing the last constitutional and legislative ties between Australia and the United Kingdom; the Government of India Act 1935, the framework statute for British India's provincial and federal government structure and the direct model for India's later constitution; and the Enabling Act of 1933, the German statute that transferred the Reichstag's legislative power to the Reich cabinet and is recorded here as the record of that transfer, not as an endorsement of it. Does not belong here: a statute that regulates conduct within an existing constitutional order rather than restructuring the order itself, grouped by its own subject instead.FactsAll Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonDefining CharacteristicWell-attestedA constitution, or supreme law, is the aggregate of fundamental principles or established precedents that constitute the legal basis of a polity, and commonly determines how that entity is to be governed. 1All Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsFilter Results16 entriesJurisdictionAllAustralia (1)British India (1)Canada (federal) (1)England (2)England and Wales, Ireland (1)France, except Alsace and Moselle (1)Germany (1)Kingdom of England and Kingdom of Scotland (1)New Zealand (1)Turkey (1)United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland (1)United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (1)United States (2)Enacted EraAll1279 (1)1392 (1)1689 (1)1707 (1)1820 (1)1854 (1)1905 (1)1920 (1)1931 (1)1933 (1)1934 (1)1935 (1)1969 (1)1975 (1)1986 (1)2013 (1)Legal StatusAllAmended (3)Current (1)Repealed (1)Repealed (Criminal Law Act 1967 for Great Britain) (1)Legal SystemAllAustralian Law (1)English Law (4)French Legal System (1)German Legal System (1)Indian Legal System (1)Law of Canada (1)Law of the United Kingdom (2)Law of the United States (2)Law of Turkey (1)New Zealand Law (1)Promulgated ByAll16th United States Congress (1)33rd United States Congress (1)Chamber of Deputies (1)Edward I of England (1)German Reichstag (1)House of Commons of Canada (1)New Zealand Parliament (1)Parliament of Australia and Parliament of the United Kingdom (1)Parliament of England (2)Parliament of Scotland and Parliament of England (1)Parliament of the United Kingdom (3)Group TreeAllConstitutional Settlement Acts of the British Isles (5)Dominion and Commonwealth Constitutional Acts (5)Federation, Crisis and Church-State Acts (4)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 161905 French law on the Separation of the Churches and the StateConstitutional and Governmental Structure ActsActs of Union 1707Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsAustralia Act 1986Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsBill of Rights 1689Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsEnabling Act of 1933Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsGovernment of India Act 1935Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsGovernment of Ireland Act 1920Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsKansas-Nebraska ActConstitutional and Governmental Structure ActsLey de Amparo (Mexico)Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsMissouri CompromiseConstitutional and Governmental Structure ActsOfficial Languages Act (Canada)Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsStatute of MortmainConstitutional and Governmental Structure ActsStatute of PraemunireConstitutional and Governmental Structure ActsStatute of Westminster 1931Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsSurname Law (Turkey)Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsTreaty of Waitangi Act 1975Constitutional and Governmental Structure ActsSources1.
