Law new
a new development or change in the law. Laws are made at many levels, including constitutional, statutory and regulatory. The Constitution and statutory law comprise the common law, while municipal ordinances, regulations and case law form the special or local laws.
A new law is an official rule that governs behavior in a society or country. It is the result of a process by which people propose different ideas, debate them and agree on one idea to become the official rule that everyone must follow. Generally, laws are written in the form of bills. These bills are then passed by Congress or another legislative body and become public laws, also known as statutes. The bills are numbered in order of their introduction, such as H.R. (House of Representatives) or S. (Senate). The final product of a bill is a statute, which is then signed by the President into law.
When a new law is made, it is important to know how that law was developed. This is done by reviewing the legislative history of the new law. The most important part of this legislative history is the committee report on the bill. This report explains the purpose and scope of the bill, and lists all the changes made to existing laws. It also includes executive communications regarding the bill.
The public has a right to know how government decisions are being made and to review the documents and statistics that lead to those decisions. It is not in the interest of the public to have access to information impeded by shrouding the process in secrecy or confidentiality. To ensure that the public is able to exercise its rights, this article provides procedures for inspecting and reviewing records of the agencies that make policy and decide matters of state concern.
