Usage

This template puts a link to the current version of the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore (currently the 1999 Reprint) available at Singapore Statutes Online, a service of the Attorney-General's Chambers of Singapore. If a version of the Constitution other than the current version is specified, no link is created.

For ordinary Singapore statutes, use the "{{Singapore Statute}}" template.

Syntax

{{Singapore Constitution|short=|rep=}}

Parameters

Parameter Description

rep Optional: enter the year of the Constitution's current reprint, e.g., "1999" for the Constitution of the Republic of Singapore (1999 Reprint). This information can be ascertained from Singapore Statutes Online, and will cause a link to be created to the current reprint available on that website.
