S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). "... The legislative cannot transfer the power of making laws to any other hands; for it being but a delegated power from the people, they who have it cannot pass it over to others. … When the people have said, we will submit to rules and be governed by laws made by such men, and in such forms, nobody else can say other men shall make laws for them; nor can the people be bound by any laws but such as are enacted by those whom they have chosen and authorized to make laws for them.“ -- John Locke Delegation Proper? Power Diagram
36
S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Constraint 1: Legislature must have the power in the first place Delegation Proper? Constraints in Canadian Law Power Diagram Cannot transgress the division of powers Cannot transgress Charter

42
S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Example of broad powers to delegate: Power to delegate “legislative” power itself The Enormous Capacity of Parliament to Delegate Powers to the Executive Power Diagram Statutes often delegate the authority to an executive body (e.g., the Governor-in- Council) to make regulations, otherwise known as ‘delegated legislation’
43
S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Example of “legislative” power form the Nuclear Safety and Control Act (NSCA): 44.

Another example of broad powers to delegate: Power to delegate a “discretionary” decision-making power The Enormous Capacity of Parliament to Delegate Powers to the Executive Power Diagram Discretion defined (per Lord Diplock): “The concept of administrative discretion involves a right to choose between more than one possible course of action upon which there is room for reasonable people to hold differing opinions as to which is to be preferred.”

The Enormous Capacity of Parliament to Delegate Powers to the Executive Power Diagram
47
S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Why discretion? “[The] delegation by governments to administrators and bureaucrats is necessary to ensure that the sheer volume of work which must be done by government is, in fact, able to be done. It is the recipients of these various delegated powers and authorities who perform most of the activities and make most of the decisions essential to the proper functioning of the government and the implementation of our laws.” -- Wagner v. Williams, 1995, Man. Q.B., affirmed, Man. C.A.: The Enormous Capacity of Parliament to Delegate Powers to the Executive Power Diagram
48
S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Why discretion? "Minister, the traditional allocation of executive responsibilities has always been so determined as to liberate the ministerial incumbent [and Parliament] from the administrative minutiae by devolving the managerial functions to those whose experience and qualifications have better formed them for the performance of such humble offices, thereby releasing their political overlords for the more onerous duties and profound deliberations which are the inevitable concomitant of their exalted position." -- Sir Humphrey Appleby, Yes Minister The Enormous Capacity of Parliament to Delegate Powers to the Executive Power Diagram

S ETTING THE S TAGE The Public Law Setting Power DiagramKey Events CML 2312: Administrative Law (Forcese). Legal authority for judicial review: Crevier, 1981, SCC: “It is true that this is the first time that this Court has declared unequivocally that a provincially- constituted statutory tribunal cannot constitutionally be immunized from review of decisions on questions of jurisdiction. …” See also Dunsmuir, 2008, SCC The Concept of Judicial Review: Courts Policing the Exercise of Power by the Executive Power Diagram
