Why are administrative agencies at times referred to as the "fourth branch of government," and is this assertion true? Are you concerned by the amount of power administrative agencies can possess or do you think this power is adequately checked by others? Why or why not? If you could eliminate or create an administrative agency, describe which agency you would eliminate or create and why.
In US, apart of three, there is a fourth part of the government. Those are Legislative, Executive, Judicial and fourth Administrative agencies.
Administrative agencies authorised by Congress that develop and implement regulations in furtherance of Statutes includes Departments, Agencies, Commissions, Bureaus,Boards, Government Corporation and Committee. Most Administrative agencies fall under the control of the executive branch.
Such groups include Press , the People and Iinterest groups.
Administrative agencies is technically part of anyone that three thus also reffered as Fouth
Branch of the government. There is no mention of agencies in the constitution even though Supreme Court considered" administrative agencies" and has recognised the legitimacy of agencies to make rules that have the same binding effect as statutes by Congress.
Government institutions that set and enforce public policy must be politically accountable to the electorate. When the legislature delegates broad lawmaking power to an administrative agency the popular control provided by direct election of decision makers is absent- but this does not mean that administrative agencies are free from political accountability.
If I could create ,I would create the Gender Equal Opportunity and Woman Development.I know there are so many laws made and passed by the government for gender equality and women development...but woman are still suffering mentally, physically and professionally. Even at the workplace they are not offered with the equal chance. Most of the time they have had to compromise . Though they are capable but they miss the chance. So, it should not happen. There should be some strong rule which help in women empowerment.
Similarly most of the time they are harassed a world wide at home, workplace or any where . It should be stopped. Culprits should have fear of law and he can be stopped from wrongdoing.
