The Theory of the Choice of Fatwa for Legislation

The adherence to transparency is one of the important issues in governance. The institutions for constitutional review are also not exempted from the obligation to exercise their powers. However, the degree of adherence by these authorities, especially in the deliberation stage, like some other institutions, needs some points to be considered. This paper, using a descriptive-analytical method, seeks to determine the scope of transparency in the deliberations of the members or judges of the Constitutional review bodies. .The deliberation stage is important since the performance of these bodies is crystallized in these deliberations more than anything else. As a result, despite the almost universal acceptance of the principle of confidentiality of deliberations in these authorities, there are the structured ways to make them transparent at different levels. Classically, the transparency has higher levels in common law systems and less in civil law systems. However, many constitutional courts/councils of recent systems have moved towards more transparency in theory and practices.
