Inside Administrative Agencies

Content: The rules and regulations created by administrative agencies can be enforced as law. The agencies help in the speedy disposal of cases, both minor and complex and thus are a big aid to US courts. The process also helps in reserving judicial resources for other significant cases. The members of administrative agencies are experts in the respective subject area. Administrative agencies can create their own rules and regulations. The Administrative Procedure Act 1946 [i] (APA) sets the standards for administrative agencies in exercising their lawmaking powers. The standards laid down by the APA also help federal courts whenever they are faced with suits challenging the rules and regulations created by the agencies. Most administrative agencies fall under the supervision of the President. The Drug Enforcement Administration and The Federal Bureau of Investigation are examples of administrative agencies that fall under the supervision of the President. However, there are also independent administrative agencies like the Securities and Exchange Commission.
