exclusive competences

Exclusive competences refer to areas where a central authority, like a government, has the sole power to make decisions and enforce laws. In such cases, no other body, like regional or local governments, can intervene or create conflicting laws. This is often seen in matters of national importance, such as defense, foreign affairs, or monetary policy. Having exclusive competences helps ensure consistency and unity in crucial areas, allowing the central authority to act decisively and effectively without interference from smaller governing bodies.
