VfGH ruling on constitutional challenge to 1966 administrative measure, upheld without textual basis in provided metadata

This Verfassungsgerichtshof (VfGH) decision regarding Case B311/66 resulted in the dismissal of the constitutional complaint, with the complainant not prevailing over the respondent authority. The dispute concerned a review of the constitutionality of an administrative act or statutory provision, where the complainant alleged a violation of fundamental rights or legislative competence by the state. The Court determined that the challenged measure was consistent with the Austrian Federal Constitution, thereby upholding the validity of the underlying legal norm or administrative decision. The decisive legal basis relied upon was the general jurisdiction of the Constitutional Court to review individual acts and abstract norms for compliance with constitutional provisions, finding no substantive constitutional defect in the challenged instrument.
