This is an interesting concept. In Norway, the parliament cannot pass contradictory laws, for instance, for the simple reason this tenet: "All power must be gathered in this hall". So in essence, Stortinget (our parliament) cannot pass laws that give power away, for instance. Doing so would be unconstitutional, also because our constitution explicitly states that power shall not be given away. Yet it has happened, but in those instances the laws is either handily disregarded at opportune times, or it's left to the suppreme court to decide the outcome where there are offended parties. And since they follow the constitution, they always follow the above tenet.
