La funzione ordinante delle norme sulla normazione e i limiti alla sua derogabilità

The article addresses the constitutional role of norms governing law-making in the Italian legal system. It argues that, despite their formal status as ordinary legislation, these rules perform a substantively constitutional function by ensuring the stability and coherence of law-making processes. On this basis, the paper develops the notion of functional non-derogability of norms on law-making and proposes a strengthened reasonableness review to prevent ad hoc legislative derogations that undermine the ordering function of the legal system.
