Constitution. That is, it is understood that no law or their norms will contradict the Constitution.

norms not change. This is established as a Constitutional provision, which applies to all the
norms contained in the Constitution, and is also reflected in the interrelationship of the
constitution, laws and by-laws.
Therefore, the supremacy of the Constitution means that the norms and rules of the Constitution
must be higher than any other laws and regulations.
