Rząd hiszpański jako prawodawca

Abstract

The article presents constitutional law analysis of the Spanish government’s role in the lawmaking process. The government’s capacities in the following scopes are described: the initiation of legislative procedure, participation in the approval procedure (monarchical sanction), and the right to enact statutory legislative acts and regulatory (executive) acts. The role of the Council of State was depicted as an advisory body to the government in the lawmaking process, and the legal possibilities to initiate preventive and subsequent review by the Constitutional Tribunal.
