| | So prerogatives of the Crown in respect of the dependencies may be limited by legislation, enacted at Westminster or by the legislature of the dependency (although such legislation would require the assent of the Crown). | | | In the case of each of the dependencies, the final court of appeal in respect of questions of the domestic law of the dependency and relevant domestic law of the United Kingdom is the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. | | | The Crown is said to have responsibility "ultimately for the good government" of the dependencies. |
