Talk:Delegated legislation in the United Kingdom

Acts of the Scotish Parliament
Are laws made under the Scotland Act 1998 delegated or primary? Morwen - Talk 14:54, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
 * Interesting question; I don't know.... I suppose the statutory instruments made per European Communities Act 1972 are definitely delegated rather than primary.  More types of UK legislations are at . – Kaihsu 18:40, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

I think Acts of the Scottish Parliament are considered primary and Scottish Statutory Instruments secondary. The National Assembly of Wales can only make Statutory Instruments, which are considered secondary. – Kaihsu 16:19, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Just realized something
I just realized that we have two separate families of articles that need to be crosslinked. It looks like as if delegated legislation is the term used in UK law for what Americans call administrative law. --Coolcaesar 02:39, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

This is also a crossover with 'statutory instruments' so this article should probably be merged.

Redundancy
The same advantages and disadvantages are repeated several times in this article. 81.174.226.229 15:23, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

Major rewrite
Because the previous version contained quite a lot of duplication, and wasn't very well structured, I've done a complete rewrite. Dmvward (talk) 12:45, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Types of delegated legislation?
Is Statutory Instruments not a type of delegated legislation? --Ingramhk (talk) 11:39, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * As stated in the article "Most delegated legislation is required (by the parent Act) to be made using a Statutory Instrument."
 * Orders-in-Council, Orders, Regulations, Rules and perhaps some of the other listed types are all made as Statutory Instruments in Great Britain, with Statutory Rules serving the same purpose as Statutory Instruments in Northern Ireland. Some Scottish secondary legislation is published under the banner of "Acts of Sederunt". Road Wizard (talk) 17:24, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank You. Should this be made clear in the article that Orders-in-Council, orders, regulation, etc are types of Statutory Instrument? --Ingramhk (talk) 12:30, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Possibly. The problem is that "most" of the legislation is released as Statutory Instruments or Statutory Rules. I am not familiar enough with each of the different types to point out the exceptions. (I have removed "Acts of Sederunt" from my earlier comment as they appear to be released under the Scottish Statutory Instrument series.) Road Wizard (talk) 12:44, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * As Road Wizard says, the difficulty is that it is "most" but not "all". I have copied across from the Statutory Instrument (UK) article a couple of examples with references where delegated legislation is not required to be made by SI. Dmvward (talk) 12:35, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
