Cevap

Statute Law consists of Acts of Parliament that have received Royal Assent and generally take precedence over Common Law.
Statute Law refers to legislation passed by both the House of Commons and the House of Lords which then receives Royal Assent. In the British constitutional framework, these Acts of Parliament are legally binding and hold a higher authority than Common Law (laws made by judges), meaning a new Act of Parliament can change or abolish existing Common Law rules.
