What is Delegated Legislation - Interpretation of Statutes

Before moving ahead, let me quickly explain what is delegated legislation.
Normally, the legislature has the authority to make the law and the executive implements the law.
However, the central legislature – i.e. the parliament and the state legislatures cannot be expected to make all the laws at every level.
The legislature often makes the laws at a higher level and delegates the authority or the powers to make low level laws to the executive itself.
How does the legislature delegate the power to the executive? – This is done, either through enabling statutes or through statutes conferring powers.
We have already discussed how enabling statutes facilitate the creation and empowerment of new entities; and statutes Conferring Powers empower existing entities.
The lower-level laws, that are made by the executive, are nothing but rules and regulations on specific subjects – which are also called delegated legislation or subordinate legislation.
The executive to whom the powers have been delegated can be a ministry, a commission, a board or other authorities.
