Acte réglementaire

An “acte réglementaire” is a type of legal decision or regulation issued by an authority, such as a government agency or minister, to implement or specify the details of laws passed by legislation. Unlike laws made by legislators, these regulations clarify, organize, or enforce existing legal frameworks, often addressing practical instructions or specific procedures. They are essential for ensuring that laws are applied consistently and effectively in real-world situations. Essentially, an acte réglementaire helps translate broad legal principles into actionable rules for organizations, officials, and the public.
