Article 228: The legal acts of Global Parliament
1. In exercising the competences conferred on it in the Constitution, Global Parliament shall use as legal instruments, in accordance with the provisions of Chapters 19 to 25, Global
Laws, nations'regulations, decisions, recommendations and opinions. A global law shall be a legislative act of general application. It shall be binding in its entirety and directly
applicable in all Member Nations. A global framework law shall be a legislative act binding, as to the result to be achieved, on Member Nations to which it is addressed, but leaving the
national authorities entirely free to choose the form and means of achieving that result. A global regulation shall be a non-legislative act of general application for the implementation of
legislative acts and of certain specific provisions of the Constitution. It may either be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member Nations, or be binding, as regards the
result to be achieved, on all Member Nations to which it is addressed, but leaving the national authorities entirely free to choose the form and means of achieving that result. A global
decision shall be a non-legislative act, binding in its entirety. A decision which specifies those to whom it is addressed shall be binding only on them. Recommendations and opinions
adopted by the Institutions shall have no binding force.
2. When considering proposals for legislative acts, Global Parliament shall refrain from adopting acts not provided for by this Article in the area in
question.
