Constitutional Court (Belgium)

The Constitutional Court of Belgium is a special judicial body responsible for ensuring that laws and governmental actions comply with the Belgian Constitution. It reviews legislation before it is enacted and can nullify laws or government measures that violate constitutional principles. The court also interprets constitutional rules and protects fundamental rights. Comprising judges appointed jointly by various political institutions, it acts as a guardian of constitutional legality, maintaining the balance of power among the legislative, executive, and judicial branches in Belgium.
