What branch of government are regulatory agencies part of? Professor Susan Dudley gives an overview of the two distinct types of regulatory agencies. Some (such as the FDA and the EPA) are clearly within the Executive Branch. Other kinds of agencies, known as independent regulatory commissions (such as the FCC, SEC and CPSC), are considered independent of the Executive Branch, though they perform a multiplicity of functions.
Susan Dudley is director of the George Washington University Regulatory Studies Center and distinguished professor of practice in the Trachtenberg School of Public Policy and Public Administration.
As always, the Federalist Society takes no position on particular legal or public policy issues; all expressions of opinion are those of the speaker.
