What is the relationship between the suspension of rights and the power of the State to make laws or take executive actions during emergencies?
The relationship between the suspension of rights and the power of the State to make laws or take executive actions during emergencies is that when a Proclamation of Emergency is in operation, the President can suspend the enforcement of certain rights conferred by Part III of the Constitution (except for Articles 20 and 21). While these rights are suspended, the State has greater power to make laws or take executive actions which it would not be competent to do if those rights were still in force. However, any law made during this period will cease to have effect once the suspension order is lifted, except for things done or omitted to be done before the law ceases to have effect.
