Administrative law is the law that governs government agencies and how they operate. It also grants specific legislative/law making powers to the agencies. In a way, government agencies aid the U.S. Congress in interpreting and enforcing laws relating to their specific agency. This is beneficial because typically these agencies are more qualified in these specific areas of the law. Each government agency governs different areas of the law, so the U.S. Government Manual can come in handy when you need to know which powers have been granted to a specific government agency.
