Home rule is where a constituency within a political unit has the power of governance granted to it. This is more normally referred as 'devolution' in the UK. The Scottish Parliament was established following the referendum of 1997 and is able to legislate on issues such as health, education, the environment, heritage, public services and most aspects of criminal and civil law. The UK parliament is still responsible for legislation on matters such as constitutional policy, foreign policy, national security, energy, trade and industry, data protection and human rights issues, among others. In the US most states are able to legislate for themselves on any matters not covered by state or federal constitutions.

The concept of "the exception does not disprove the rule" means that just because there is an exception to a general rule, it does not invalidate the rule itself. This idea can be applied in various situations, such as in scientific theories, statistical analysis, and social norms. It reminds us to not dismiss a rule or principle based on a single exception, but to consider the broader context and evidence before drawing conclusions.
