The Separation of Powers The doctrine of the Separation of Powers purports to prevent the exercise of arbitrary or tyrannical power. It does so by dividing powers between various independent institutions. In other words, rather than one person holding all the power (like in a dictatorship), power is spread between separate people. The power of the state is usually separated into three different arms: • Legislative (or lawmaking) power - this is the power to pass laws. It is entrusted to Parliament. • Executive power - this is the power to enforce or carry out the laws passed by Parliament. It is entrusted to the government, and the public servants which the government employ (police, public teachers and doctors, the RTA, etc). • Judicial power - this is the power to interpret and judge according to the law made by parliament. It is entrusted to the courts and judges.
