The Enabling Act contained which provision?

Question

Question restatement: What provision did the Enabling Act contain?

Option 1: It began the concentration camp system. While the Nazi regime did expand repression and camps, the Enabling Act itself did not specifically establish the concentration camp system; its primary legal function was to grant extraordinary legislative powers to the government. This makes the statement inaccurate as a description of the Enabling Act's provision.

Option 2: It allowed for laws to be passed that did not conform to the constitution. This is the core feature of the Enabling Act. By granting the cabinet and the president the authority to enact laws without requiring the approval of the Reichstag or conforming to the constitution, it effectively bypassed constitutional checks and enabled legal governance outside the normal constitutional framework. This statement accurately captures the Act’s key provision.

Option 3: It enabled warrantless searches and seizures. The Enabling Act did not specifically state that it allowed warrantless searches and seizures; such powers would be tied to other laws or decrees. The act’s constitutional bypass focused on the broader ability to legislate without Reichstag consent, rather than detailing police search powers.

Option 4: It declared a state of emergency. While the Enabling Act created a framework for emergency-like governance by bypassing legislative procedure, the act itself is not a declaration of a state of emergency in the way a formal emergency proclamation is worded. Its central feature was the delegation of legislative power, not a standalone emergency declaration.

Summary: Among the options, the statement that precisely reflects the Enabling Act’s provision is that it allowed for laws to be passed that did not conform to the constitution. The other options describe consequences or facets associated with the Nazi regime's actions but do not accurately describe the specific constitutional provision embodied in the Enabling Act itself.
