Evaluation of the Consolidation Collections of the Vice Presidency for Legal Affairs

Increase in Legislation leads to inflation of laws. Certainly, this problem causes inefficiency of laws. So, codification seems to be necessary. Despite 110 years of history of legislation in Iran, the first act of codification was enacted about 60 years ago. The legislative power should be the main legal entity that is responsible for codification. By the way, there are other legal entities –such as of the Vice Presidency for Legal Affairs - that prepares the process of codification. This deputy has published its codified laws in various forms like books, sites and applications. In this paper we tried to evaluate this collection, using the analytical-descriptive method. In conclusion, we saw two kinds of problems in this case: implementation problems and theoretical problems. Between these dual problems, implementation problems contribute more. In another way, this office is a few steps ahead of other similar institutions. Also, it has been able to apply the principles of codification equally to all laws.
