Not necessarily, as there are 150 contingency orders in the case of extreme circumstances. Order 65, for instance, is that the Supreme Chancellor is no longer fit for duty based on a majority vote by the Senate or Security Council and should be captured or killed. Other Orders deal in cases such as loss of command structure, sanctioning actions against a single combatant, suppression of communications/information, actions taken in the event of mass civilian casualties, etc.
Thus, as Jedi are a powerful entity, there is an Order detailing actions taken in the case of the Jedi acting against the interests of the Republic.
True, but iirc Order 66 is the only one that comes from one person with no form of check; its literally 'Chancellor says so and the Jedi all die'.
Actually - since some of the orders specify orders other people can give, shouldn't (theoretically) other people know about the orders too (or at least some of them)?
