FIA Act delegation

Current AffairsFIA

Who shall determine the maximum extent of delegation of powers under the FIA Act?

Correct answer: A

A
Secretary
Correct
B
Deputy Secretary
C
Auditor General
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

The maximum extent of delegation of powers under the FIA Act is determined by Congress, which sets the statutory limits in the Act that define how far the agency may delegate its authority. The agency, typically through the Secretary or designated officials, may exercise delegated powers within these statutory limits, but the ultimate authority to determine the maximum extent of delegation rests with Congress. This is consistent with the constitutional principle that Congress holds legislative power and may delegate authority to agencies within defined limits. The explanation in the question aligns with this understanding, confirming that the Secretary oversees administrative functions and delegation within the organization, but the maximum extent is set by Congress.
