What is delegated legislation?
Delegated legislation means permitting bodies beneath parliament to pass their own legislation. The three main forms of delegated legislation are statutory instruments, by-laws and orders in Council.
Statutory instruments are created by government departments for areas under their responsibility. The Parent Act gives the departmentąs permission as well as guidance about how the new piece of legislation is to be written and processed. Under Statutory Instruments the Minister for Transport will be able to deal with necessary road traffic regulations and the Health and Safety Executive may use a Statutory Instrument to change safety law; statutory instruments give departmentąs immense freedom to change the law and as a result 3,000 statutory instruments are brought into force each year.
By-laws are created by local authorities to cover matters in their own area, which must be approved by central government. For example Nottingham City Council along with many other local authorities in the country is enforcing a car ban in the City Centre area. Public bodies such as the British Airport Authority and the railways can enforce rules about public behaviour on their premises. Another example of a bylaw is the smoking ban on the London Underground System.
Orders in council are laws passed in an emergency by the government, when parliament is unable to sit. Under the Emergency Powers Act 1920 orders in Council are approved by the Privy Council and signed by the Queen. An example of when Orders in Council could have been used is during the bombing of the World Trade Centre in September 2001, if the speculations that the Houses of Parliament was next to be attacked came true, then orders in council would have been the last resort.

by-laws
n. 1. A local or subordinate law; a private law or regulation made by a corporation for its own government.
There was likewise a law to restrain the by-laws, or ordinances of corporations.
- Bacon.
The law or institution; to which are added two by-laws, as a comment upon the general law.
- Addison.
2. A law that is less important than a general law or constitutional provision, and subsidiary to it; a rule relating to a matter of detail; as, civic societies often adopt a constitution and by-laws for the government of their members. In this sense the word has probably been influenced by by, meaning secondary or aside.
