Many quasi-judicial organizations or administrative tribunals supplement the rules of natural justice with their own detailed rules of procedure.

The body of regulations, rules, orders and decisions to carry out regulatory powers created by administrative agencies. In ordinary use, as contrasted with technical legal use, people often speak of administrative law as "regulation." For example, it is often pointed out that it is easier for regulatory agencies, such as OSHA & the EPA, to update their regulations than it is to get Congress to pass new laws. It is said that such regulation "has the force of law." In the technical legal sense regulation is law.
