Commonwealth Laws refer to the body of legislation enacted by the Parliament of a Commonwealth nation, such as Australia, Canada, or India. These laws apply to the entire country and cover various areas, including trade, defense, Immigration, and taxation. In Australia, for example, Commonwealth Laws are distinct from state laws and aim to maintain uniformity and consistency across the nation. They are often derived from the Constitution, which outlines the powers and responsibilities of the federal government.

Why do the two Australian territories have reduced levels of government?

The territories of Australia are established by the Commonwealth government, and are therefore subject to Commonwealth laws. The Commonwealth may deign to give them powers to establish laws in some areas, but essentially this is at the discretion of the Commonwealth government. The territories are really just extensions of the Commonwealth government and its laws. When the six colonies federated as states, their powers were defined by the Constitution. The territories were established a decade after federation, and although there is provision for them to become states at a later time, until that happens they are still subject only to Commonwealth law.
