Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Federal Supreme Court could directly review the intercantonal concordat, despite Vaud's constitutional court proceedings.
Decisione estratta
The Federal Supreme Court had jurisdiction to directly review the concordat; a cantonal constitutional court cannot abstractly annul an intercantonal concordat.
Motivazione estratta
Intercantonal concordats with directly applicable norms qualify as normative cantonal acts under Art. 82 let. b LTF, but cantonal constitutional review cannot extend to an act belonging to a higher intercantonal legal order. A cantonal review of the approval decree would only affect Vaud's accession, not the concordat itself.
