Official source128. (1) The Federal Court shall, to the exclusion of any other
court, have jurisdiction to determine in accordance with any rules
of court regulating the exercise of such jurisdiction—
(a) any question whether a law made by Parliament or by the

which Parliament or, as the case may be, the Legislature
of the State has no power to make laws; and
(b) disputes on any other question between States or between
the Federation and any State.
(2) Without prejudice to any appellate jurisdiction of the Federal
Court, where in any proceedings before another court a question
arises as to the effect of any provision of this Constitution, the
Federal Court shall have jurisdiction (subject to any rules of
court regulating the exercise of that jurisdiction) to determine the
question and remit the case to the other court to be disposed of
in accordance with the determination.
(3) The jurisdiction of the Federal Court to determine appeals
from the Court of Appeal, a High Court or a judge thereof shall
be such as may be provided by federal law.
