Barry & Barry, Inc. v. Department of Motor Vehicles green
wash · 1972
2 sentences

1983This argument is based on Barry & Barry, Inc. v. Department of Motor Vehicles, 81 Wn.2d 155, 159 , 500 P.2d 540 (1972) in which this court held that *869 legislative power may be delegated to administrative agencies only where "procedural safeguards exist to control arbitrary administrative action and any administrative abuse of discretionary power." Respondent argues it is not subject to the Barry delegation standard since ratemaking is a legislative act and the delegation doctrine applies to administrative bodies.
