Well, there's the "Executive Order", as well as the fact that many
organizations are empowered to create "policy". Although policy is not
specifically law, it may as well be.
I am curious though:
1) Can the laws that grant policy making privileges be themselves secret?
2) Are policy making privilege laws restricted within a certain scope
(within a specific organization)?
3) Are all *SIGNED* executive orders publically available?
