I'm not irish, but the oireachtas should be the legislature, not the government, no?
If so, this is not uncommon in constitutions, the term in the italian legal system is "autodichia" (something like "self-justice").
If you didn't have this then the law would be decided by unelected officials.
- anoncake 6y agoNo, the law would be "decided" by judges. But actually they just make sure it's consistent with the constitution, which is higher law. If you don't want a part of the constitution to be enforced, why should it even be there?
