!!!Weisung Instruction (German: Weisung), an order issued by an administrative organ instructing subordinate organs (internal administrative action). Instructions must be followed, unless they have been issued by an incompetent organ or if following the instruction would offend against penal provisions. Judges in performance of their duties are not bound by instructions; other organs that are not bound by instructions are set up on a variety of occasions by constitutional amendment. !Literature R.
