What is the supreme law of Dominica, and when did it take effect?
The Constitution of the Commonwealth of Dominica — set out in the Schedule to the Commonwealth of Dominica Constitution Order 1978 — is the supreme law of Dominica and took effect on 3 November 1978, the date of independence. It establishes Dominica as a parliamentary republic with a unicameral House of Assembly.

Why Lawstronaut for Dominican legal research
Dominican legal information is spread across the Official Gazette, Parliament, the Attorney General's Chambers, financial-services regulators, and the courts of the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court. For humans, that means slow research. For AI systems, it's a bigger problem: fragmented source access, inconsistent formats, missing provenance, and weak citation trails.
Lawstronaut turns those sources into one structured legal data layer — source links, metadata, full text, versioning, and API/MCP access. Your product or agent retrieves the legal source directly instead of relying on generic web search or unverified model memory. Every answer carries a citation, a timestamp, and a link to the official document — the provenance that makes a legal research platform defensible to auditors and regulators.
About Dominica legal coverage
Dominica is a common-law jurisdiction rooted in English legal tradition and a parliamentary republic within the Commonwealth. Primary legislation is enacted by the unicameral House of Assembly and published in the Official Gazette, while the Revised Laws of the Commonwealth of Dominica consolidate the statute book. Judicial authority is exercised through the Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court — the High Court and Court of Appeal shared across the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States — with final appeals to the Caribbean Court of Justice, which Dominica adopted as its final appellate court in 2015. Regulatory oversight sits with bodies including the Financial Services Unit, the shared Eastern Caribbean Central Bank, and the Eastern Caribbean Securities Regulatory Commission. Legal materials are published in English.
Dominican law reflects its Commonwealth heritage and the shared OECS legal framework, and continues to evolve — from the 2015 move to the Caribbean Court of Justice as final court, to the frequently amended Citizenship by Investment framework and financial-services rules responding to international AML/CFT standards — so citations to superseded provisions can simply be wrong. Point-in-time data straight from the source is what keeps a Dominica legal research answer correct today.
