POLITICAL CONSTITUTION AND
ADMINISTRATION
The Norwegian constitution is founded on the law of May 17th,
1814 (see appendix). The extraordinary Storthing, which met
in the autumn of 1814, modified this «fundamental» law, and the
revised constitution is dated November 4th, 1814.
Besides this law it is necessary to mention as sources of the
constitutional law in Norway the Act of Union of August 6th, 1815,
called «Rigsakten» (the Act of the Realm); the Swedish law of
the succession to the throne, formally acknowledged in § 6 of the
fundamental law of Norway; the act of July 18th, 1815 (on the
coming of age of the king when completing his 18th year); the
act of September 18th, 1815 (on the regulations for the High
Court of the Realm); the act of July 7th, 1828 (on constitutional
responsibility); the acts of April 21st, 1888 and of July 27th 1896
(on acquisition and loss of citizenship in Norway); the act of July
21st, 1894 (on the religious confession of the functionaries of the
State); and finally the election acts of June 24th, 1828, July 1st,
1884, July 23rd, 1894. and June 5th, 1897.
According to § 112 of the fundamental law the bills
purporting to modify the constitution or to make additions to it are
subject to the following procedure: These bills, which can only be
voted in their integrity and without amendments, must be brought
in in the first session of a newly elected Storthing either by the
government or by a member of the Storthing.
The president gives the Storthing due notice of the bills, which are
then published in the official journal without being subject to any vote.
