enabling act

Read a random definition: American common law

A quick definition of enabling act:

An enabling act is a type of law that allows something that was previously not allowed or gives new powers to a group or agency. It can be passed by a legislative body, like a government, and can create new rules or change existing ones. For example, an enabling act could allow a government agency to carry out new tasks or responsibilities. It is important to note that an enabling act can only be passed by a legislative body with the authority to do so.

A more thorough explanation:

An enabling act is a type of statute that permits something that was previously prohibited or creates new powers. It can also refer to a congressional statute that confers powers on an executive agency to carry out various delegated tasks.

For example, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is an enabling act that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities and enables them to have equal access to employment, public accommodations, and other areas of life.

Another example is the Clean Air Act, which is an enabling act that authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate air pollution and protect public health and the environment.

Overall, an enabling act is a type of statute that empowers individuals or agencies to take action that was previously restricted or prohibited.
