The Federal Administrative Procedure Act (APA) was enacted in 1946 to provide uniform standards of procedure that would be common to all agencies. The act guarantees the right of judicial review to any person suffering legal wrong because of any agency action. The APA basically governs the many of the activities of federal agencies including rulemaking, adjudication, judicial review of agency action, access to agency information (Freedom of Information Act amendment), and open meetings (Government in the Sunshine Act amendment). Under the APA, all agency action is either rulemaking or adjudication. |
