Legislation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Legislation refers
- to the process of enacting statutory laws, or
- to the set of statutory laws in a state. Legislation is passed by a legislature and, in some states, must also be confirmed by the executive. When a bill becomes a law the law is said to be "promulgated" or "enacted."
