Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: B
Legislation (or " statutory law ") is law which has been promulgated (or " enacted ") by a legislature or other governing body or the process of making it. Before an item of legislation becomes law it may be known as a bill, and may be broadly referred to as "legislation", while it remains under consideration to distinguish it from other business.
...A legislature is the law-making body of a political unit, usually a national government, that has power to amend and repeal public policy. Laws enacted by legislatures are known as delegated legislation
