In the US, there isn't a branch of government assigned specifically with deciding "the meaning of laws."

The legislative branch, or Congress, creates new laws and passes them into being.

The executive branch, the president and his appointed staff and agencies, execute the laws passed by Congress.

And in the case of conflict or argument about the laws, the judicial branch sits in judgment over the laws, to see that they are in keeping with the Constitution.
