SpainPregunta 1061 · Government, law and civic participation

Once a law has been passed, what does it need before it can be applied?

In the exam (Spanish)

Cuando una ley ya está aprobada, ¿qué necesita para poder aplicarse?

  1. aNothing.Nada.
  2. bRules that implement it.Normas que la desarrollen.Correct answer
  3. cTo be reviewed by Parliament.Ser revisada por el Parlamento.

Why?

Many laws only set out the general lines, and the Government then approves rules that implement them, such as regulations, to explain how they are applied in practice. Also, every law is published in the BOE (Official State Gazette) before it comes into force.
