Prispevek obravnava nastanek in zgodovinski razvoj delegirane zakonodaje na območju Anglije, in sicer v obdobju od poznega srednjega veka do sredine 20. stoletja. Avtor ugotavlja, da je delegirana zakonodaja v Angliji predvsem rezultat boja za moč med monarhom in parlamentom (notranji dejavnik), po vzpostavitvi ravnotežja pa je postala predvsem orodje za reševanje nujnih zadev, pred katerimi se je znašla država (zdravje, vojna, javni red itd. – torej odzivanje na spremembe okolja; zunanji dejavnik). Ne glede na to je v času nujnih zadev razvidna težnja izvršilne oblasti, da prekoračuje vsebinski in časovni okvir podeljenih pooblastil, praviloma skupaj s parlamentom. Enkrat dosežena stopnja delegacije se je težko, če sploh, vrnila v prejšnje stanje. Iz razvojnega pregleda izhaja tudi, da je pomen delegirane zakonodaje v Angliji rastel v obeh razsežnostih, tako v kvantitativni kot tudi v kvalitativni. Čeprav je na prvi pogled urejala zgoljpodrobnosti, pa je bil njen pomen v praksi precej večji.

The article deals with the emergence and historical development of delegated legislation in the area of England from the late Middle Ages to the mid-20th century. The author notes that the delegated legislation in England is the primary result of the struggle for power between the monarch and the parliament (an internal factor). After equilibrium was reached, it has become a tool for solving urgent matters that the state has faced (health, war, public order, etc. – that is, a reaction to environmental changes; an external factor). Nevertheless, at the time of urgent matters, the tendency of the executive power to transgress the scope and time-frame of the powers granted, as a rule, is hand-in-hand with Parliament. The level of delegation once achieved is difficult, if at all possible, to return to its former state. The developmental review also indicates that the importance of delegated legislation in England has grown in both dimensions – quantitatively and qualitatively. Despite the fact that at first glance it regulated only details, its significance in practice was considerably higher.
