Delegated Legislation + and -


	Delegated Legislation + and -
	Advantages Its quicker then parliament; as they can be passed within a short amount of time. Allows Parliament to concentrate on broader issues Allows for specialized and local knowledge to be used; making them more effective then laws easily revoked if problems caused; where as laws need other laws to revoke them impossible for parliament to see problems when passing the act; delegated legislation allows for changes and updates to be made; I.E minimum wage Allows for rapid action in emergencies (Foot and Mouth crisis)	Disadvantages In some cases it is undemocratic There is a risk of sub-delegation; such as government ministers may pass it onto someone in their department to complete Large amount publicized; for statutory instruments there are over 3000+ made each year A lack of publicity- mainly online. Unable to access a majority through libraries. The control by parliament is not always effective; time consuming Lack of scrutiny.
	Evaluation No evalutation needed, as not asked for this during the exam ^^
