The Conference National Board (NBE) – Restorative Art Section Practice Test

Regulations created by an agency like FTC are an example of which law category?

statutory law constitutional law common law administrative law

Correct Answer:

administrative law

Explanation:

Administrative law governs how government agencies create and apply rules. The FTC, a regulatory agency, gets its power from Congress and issues regulations to implement and enforce the laws it administers. Those rules have the force of law within the agency’s realm and guide how businesses must operate, especially in areas like advertising and consumer protection. They aren’t the statutes passed by a legislature (statutory law), nor direct writings of the Constitution (constitutional law), nor are they chiefly the product of courtroom decisions (common law). Instead, they are the rules created through the agency’s rulemaking under statutory authority, which is the essence of administrative law.
