hatáskörrel

Hatáskörrel is the instrumental form of hatáskör, a Hungarian noun meaning jurisdiction, authority, or the scope of power. It is used to express that a person or body acts with a particular authority or within a defined area of decision-making.

In legal and administrative language, hatáskör refers to the legal power to perform tasks or to make decisions. The expression hatáskörrel indicates that the subject possesses, exercises, or operates within that authority. It is commonly found in formal documents, statutes, and official statements.

Usage and nuance: Hatáskör and related terms such as jogkör and feladatkör describe different aspects of power and duty. Hatáskör roughly corresponds to the range of decisions one is authorized to take, while jogkör can emphasize the legal right to act, and feladatkör the set of tasks within a position. The instrumental form hatáskörrel is employed after verbs that denote possessing or exercising authority, such as rendelkezik (has), gyakorol (exercises), vagy jár el (acts within).

Examples:

- A polgármester hatáskörrel rendelkezik a helyi rendeletek meghozatalára. (The mayor has jurisdiction to enact local regulations.)

- Az eljárásban a rendőrség hatáskörrel jár el. (In the procedure, the police act within their jurisdiction.)

- Ő hatáskörrel rendelkezik a döntés meghozatalára. (He has the authority to make the decision.)
