Examination of Consistency of Domestic Laws Sample Clauses

Examination of Consistency of Domestic Laws with the Concepts and Principles The concepts and principles discussed above should take precedence in the formulation of the Water Utilization Rules. Besides, all of the provisions of the Rules should be consistent with both the Agreement on the Cooperation for the Sustainable Development of the Mekong River Basin and the laws enforced in the countries concerned to ensure the smooth formulation and implementation thereof. In this connection, the consistency of domestic laws with the concepts and principles had been preliminarily assessed to confirm the amicability of the Rules to each domestic law. The responses of domestic laws against international agreements are also crucial to implement the Rules in each country. The assessed and studied laws are as follows. Table V-3-7 Reviewed Laws Related to Water Resources in Riparian Countries Country Name of Law Cambodia Draft Law on Water Resources Management of the Kingdom of Cambodia (Submitted to the Council of Ministers on March 5, 2001) Laos The Water and Water Resources Law (Resolved at the National Assembly on November 10, 1996) Thailand Water Resources Act (Unofficial translation: Note on principle and reasons) Vietnam The Law on Water Resource (Resolved at the National Assembly on May 20, 1998) The results of Article by Article examination attested that all the domestic laws are consistent with the concepts and principles and no legal conflict is foreseeable. The examination confirmed that all the domestic laws had been formulated on the same foundation as the Water Utilization Rules in principle. The domestic laws of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam enunciate the responses of laws to international agreements. Although there is no prescription concerning international agreements in the Water Resources Act of Thailand, which was drafted before the end of 2002, no difficulty is foreseeable as to implementation of the Rules because no inconsistent act can be formulated if the Rules are agreed upon in advance.
