Generally you can't carve out from a constitution, it is all encompassing. You can reinterpret perhaps but "carve outs" are only by amendment to the constitution. It's a concept called constitutional supremacy. There's generally ranking to laws. Think of a venn diagram with subset circles inside bigger circles.

Constitutional Law > Statutory/Legislative Law > Administrative/Regulatory Law > Case Law/Common Law
