Abstract
The application of constitutional texts depends on their formulation in a sound language that is free from deficiency and ambiguity. It also depends on the behavior of those in charge of the political process in the country، which has an obligation to implement it as indicated in the constitution. The presence of the second chamber in the legislative authority is one of the characteristics of the federal system، despite the departure of some from the federal states. About that in the formation of the legislative authority، as most federal states adopt the two-chamber system in its formation، so the first council is an elected body of the people that practices the enactment of laws and represents the entire people، while the second council is representative of the states of the members of the federation، and in line with this trend، our constitution in force took the two-chamber system، As the legislative authority consists of the House of Representatives and the Union، however، it suspended the formation of the latter according to Article (137) of the Constitution contained in the transitional provisions. Thus، the existing principles in the federal system، and what is in force in the constitutions of countries based on the binary system in the legislative authority، as was the constitutional judiciary represented by the The Federal Supreme Court has a negative position in its rulings in this regard.
