1. There are several sources of Administrative law which provide legal requirements for an
administrative action (to be considered valid).

1.1. Define administrative law.

Administrative law is a branch of public law that deals with the rules, procedures, and principles
governing the administration and regulation of government agencies (both federal and state). It
encompasses the legal principles that govern the activities of administrative agencies of government,
including the creation, implementation, and enforcement of regulatory laws. Administrative law
primarily focuses on the processes and actions of these agencies, ensuring they act within their
authority, follow fair procedures, and make decisions that are just and reasonable. It provides a
framework for regulating the powers and duties of administrative bodies and ensures that they
comply with the laws enacted by the legislature.

This area of law also addresses the rights and obligations of individuals and entities affected by
administrative decisions. Administrative law ensures that there is a mechanism for the review and
oversight of administrative actions, typically through judicial review or other forms of appeal. It
aims to protect citizens from arbitrary and unlawful actions by public authorities by establishing
standards of fairness, transparency, and accountability. In essence, administrative law serves to
balance the need for effective government administration with the need to safeguard individual rights
and uphold the rule of law in public administration.
