Legislations are the laws that are established by the<br />

Parliaments at federal level and by the State<br />

Legislative Assemblies at the state level. In<br />

<strong>Malaysia</strong>, the legislative gets its authority from the<br />

Federal Constitution. It mentions the scope of the<br />

Parliament and the State Assembly.<br />

If the Parliament (or any State Assembly) makes a<br />

law which is not <strong>in</strong> its scope of authority or<br />

contradicts with the constitution, the courts can<br />

declare that as null and void.<br />
