1. Quasi-legislative or Rulemaking Power

Administrative Agencies and Subordinate Legislation

Administrative agencies are clothed with rule-making powers. A regulation must be germane to the objects and purposes of the law, remain within the authority delegated by law, conform to the statute and the Constitution, and comply with applicable requirements for publication and filing. (People v. Jolliffe, G.R. No. L- 9553, 13 May 1959)
