Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Delegated Legislation: Three Lectures
These chapters do not pretend to be exhaustive. When Mr Alexander Pulling, the learned editor of so many annual volumes of Statutory Rules and Orders and so many manuals of emer geney legislation, is persuaded to give us the fruits of his unique experience, the task will be in the proper hands. His prefaces to the original Annual Volume of Statutory Rules and Orders (issued in 1890) and to the original Index to Statutory Rules and Orders (issued in 1 891)first revealed the need of an orderly system of collecting and publishing the already considerable out put of subsidiary or departmental law-making. When in 1893 Parliament laid down the lines along which such publication should continue, his Annual Volumes for the past years (from 1890 to 1892) were officially prescribed as the model for the future. Mr Pulling's qualifications to be the historian and ex pounder of delegated legislation need no further advertisement. His generous approval of the idea of delivering the lectures whereof the present book has been the outcome is one of many kindnesses for which the apprentice is grateful to the master.
