autonomy statutes

Autonomy statutes are laws or legal provisions that grant a specific region, institution, or organization the authority to govern itself independently within certain limits. They define how much control the entity has over its internal affairs, policies, and decision-making processes, while still being subject to overarching national or regional laws. Basically, these statutes enable a defined degree of self-governance, allowing the entity to operate with autonomy in its designated areas, fostering local or organizational discretion while maintaining integration within the broader legal framework.
