RATIFICATION BY PARLIAMENT Clause Samples
The 'Ratification by Parliament' clause requires that an agreement or contract be formally approved by a legislative body before it becomes legally binding. In practice, this means that even if the parties have negotiated and signed the document, its terms will not take effect until the relevant parliament has reviewed and officially endorsed it, which is common in international treaties or significant government contracts. This clause ensures that major agreements receive democratic oversight and legal legitimacy, preventing unauthorized commitments and safeguarding public interests.
