Mode of exercising legislative power of a state

Section 100 · 1999 Constitution (2004 edition)

What Constitution says

(1) The power of a House of Assembly to make laws shall be exercised by bills passed by the House of Assembly and, except as otherwise provided by this section, assented to by the Governor. (2) A bill shall not become Law unless it has been duly passed and, subject to subsection (1) of this section, assented to in accordance with the provisions of this section. (3) Where a bill has been passed by the House of Assembly it shall be presented to the Governor for assent. (4) Where a bill is presented to the Governor for assent he shall within thirty days thereof signify that he assents or that he withholds assent. (5) Where the Governor withholds assent and the bill is again passed by the House of Assembly by two-thirds majority, the bill shall become law and the assent of the Governor shall not be required.

This is the 1999 Constitution as published in 2004. Later amendments aren't included yet, so a section may have changed since.
