The WASC shall also have the authority over the administration of all WA Neutral Territories in the world.

All nation states of the WA may also suggest international laws through a member state of the WASC.

The WASC may appoint any of its member state as officer-in-charge in administering a complaint or a case through the directive of its President or through its consensus provided that the enforcement of its judicial power shall be exercised by the WASC collectively.

If a nation state files a complaint against another nation state, both parties shall agree to the arbitration before the complaint be heard as an international case otherwise the complaint shall not be elevated into an international case and be deemed unsuccessful. However, if the complainant nation state asks the WASC to bring the refusing nation state into compulsory arbitration, the WASC shall hold a vote to elevate the complaint into an international case which shall be based on facts beyond reasonable doubt. Thereafter, the case shall proceed and both parties can then subjected to the arbitration.

If a member state of the WASC is involved in international case, that nation state shall be prohibited from voting on any procedure of the WASC regarding the international case to ensure fairness and equality. On the other hand, if a nation state files a complaint against the WASC or any of its instrumentalities and any of their policies, the officiating nation state of the concerned international institution shall participate in the compulsory arbitration, acting in behalf of the concerned international institution.

The WASC, under its judicial authority, shall also be the sole interpreter of international laws in the WA.
