MARKING SCHEME FOR SSS 3 GOVERNMENT FIRST TERM MOCK EXAMINATION (OBJECTIVE AND ESSAY)

SECTION A: OBJECTIVE TEST

Question 1 (Award: 3 marks each for any 5 points explained = 15 marks; 1 mark for just listing)

The concept of the rule of law is limited in terms of application because of the following:

Immunity provision: Certain categories of public office holders like the president, diplomats, judges, legislatures etc. may not be sued in the law court while the tenure of their respective offices last. In international law, foreign diplomats are not tried under the laws of their host countries.
Customs and traditions: The practice of some people in terms of customs and traditions may hinder the full enjoyment of peoples’ rights. This limits the working of the rule of law.
Delegated legislation: The delegation of law-making power to some bodies other than the legislature often brings about the complexity of law and abuse of such power which may lead to the violation of fundamental human rights of the citizens even without the opportunity of seeking redress.
