ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Legal certainty

Legal certainty is like a promise. It means that the law will be the same over time, so you can trust it won't just change without you knowing. It means that if the law says something is allowed or not allowed, you can trust it will stay that way. This helps people know what's right and wrong, so they can make plans and follow the law.
