== Statement ==
Use of Tsm’syen law outside the Nation requires consent.

== Purpose ==
To affirm that sharing or applying Tsm’syen law beyond the community must occur with proper authorization.

== Explanation ==
Law is carried through relationship and responsibility.

When it is presented or relied upon outside the Nation, those relationships must still be respected.

Consent confirms that use remains connected to lawful authority.

== Function ==
This principle protects against unauthorized publication, application, or representation.

It keeps control of law with those who hold standing.

== What This Prevents ==
* appropriation  
* misrepresentation  
* circulation without accountability  
* authority claimed without permission

== Relationship to Learning ==
Education and cooperation may be welcomed.

Welcome does not remove the need for consent.

== Result ==
External engagement can occur while maintaining jurisdiction over meaning.

== Cross-References ==
* [[Misuse of records undermines integrity]]
* [[External interpretation lacks lawful authority]]
* [[Protection of meaning preserves sovereignty]]
* [[Citation does not confer authority to reinterpret]]
