quasi-legislative power

Read a random definition: consumer protection laws

A quick definition of quasi-legislative power:

Quasi-legislative power is a type of power that an administrative agency has to make rules. Power means the ability to do something or control someone else's actions. In this case, it refers to the legal right or authorization to make rules that can change legal relationships. It is a power that is given to an agency to help it carry out its duties.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Quasi-legislative power refers to the authority of an administrative agency to create rules and regulations that have the force of law. This power is not explicitly granted by the Constitution but is derived from the agency's delegated authority to carry out its mission.

Example: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has quasi-legislative power to create regulations that protect the environment. For example, the EPA may create rules that limit the amount of pollutants that can be released into the air or water by factories or other sources. These regulations have the force of law and can be enforced by the agency.

Explanation: The example illustrates how the EPA, as an administrative agency, has the authority to create rules and regulations that have the force of law. This power is derived from the agency's delegated authority to protect the environment. The regulations created by the EPA are binding and enforceable, just like laws passed by Congress. Quasi-legislative power allows administrative agencies to address complex issues and respond to changing circumstances without having to go through the lengthy process of passing legislation.
