The Misuse of Emergency Power

The Misuse of Emergency Power

To start with, on three grounds emergency is usually declared war external aggression and internal disturbances about first two grounds there is no objection because the concepts of ‘war’ and ‘external aggression’ tend to be specifically defined with international law. Nevertheless the problem of mistreatment of emergency power is based on the third floor internal disturbance’. Your message ‘internal disturbance’ is nowhere defined. It’s a vague term and due to its vagueness the executive can certainly misuse this emergency power. Another important characteristic of emergency convention in democratic countries is any time emergency is declared a special or emergency procedure of parliament has to be summoned immediately if it is not in procedure. During the emergency of the World War lithe British Parliament what food was in session till the particular war ended and emergency withdrawn.
