Enabling Acts

An enabling act is a primary piece of legislation passed by Parliament that grants powers to a public authority or agency to take certain actions, such as making regulations or implementing programs. Its purpose is to authorize government bodies or agencies to act within defined boundaries. It “enables” them to create rules (regulations), take administrative actions, or exercise discretion in specified areas.
