Meaning & Judicial Interpretation: (اردو مفہوم اور قانونی تشریح)

2017 PLD 289 LAHORE-HIGH-COURT-LAHORE Judicial Precedent
Exercise of powers by a regulatory authority/public regulatorFlexibility and independence of regulatory authoritiesSubordinate legislation/rules enacted by a RegulatorTest to determine validity of such subordinate legislation/rules

Whenever there was an element of flexibility, a regulator may run the risk of over stepping its boundary and going beyond the authority delegated to it and therefore it was important to examine the question as to whether the rules and regulations made under a statute were inconsistent with the statute itself and whether such rules and regulations achieved the purpose of the statute

Courts were to ensure that a regulator remained within its regulatory domain and did not attempt to step into the role of the Legislator.
