Abstract: Legislative function is a crucial aspect of the modern welfare state, where the legislative body performs its duties according to the constitution or precedents. Post-legislative scrutiny, a concept that has been little discussed globally, is a growing need in Pakistan. The concept of legislation is defined by the French philosopher Charles-Louis de second at, who introduced the separation of power theory, which divided the political authority of the state into legislative, executive, and judicial powers. The legislative function is focused on enacting laws, while the executive handles implementation. The judiciary plays a specific role in adjudication for protecting people's rights and ensuring the smooth functioning of the social system. There is limited academic literature on post-legislative scrutiny, but the need for this concept is becoming increasingly evident in various articles, papers, and discourses.
