viranomaissäännöksiin

Viranomaissäännöksiin is a Finnish term referring to the regulations and provisions issued by government authorities. It is the illative plural form of viranomaissäännös and is used to indicate rules that fall within the scope of official administrative regulations. The phrase is commonly employed to discuss compliance, applicability, or reference to these rules as a set, rather than to primary legislation itself.

Viranomaissäännökset are typically created by authorities under statutory delegation and may cover detailed requirements, procedures, and technical standards across various sectors. They are binding on those to whom they apply and may carry penalties for non-compliance. Examples can include rules related to health and safety, data protection, licensing, permits, and administrative procedures. Because they operate within the framework of administrative law, viranomaissäännökset often function on a more specific or technical level than general laws.

In usage, viranomaissäännöksiin appears in phrases such as noudattaa viranomaissäännöksiä (to comply with government regulations), soveltaa viranomaissäännöksiä (to apply government regulations), or viranomaissäännöksiin liittyvät määräykset (provisions related to government regulations). The term helps distinguish regulatory rules issued by authorities from primary legislation (lainsäädäntö) and other types of binding rules, such as ministerial decrees (asetukset) or internal guidelines.

Relation to other terms: lainsäädäntö refers to laws enacted by Parliament, while asetukset are official decrees or regulations issued by ministries. Viranomaissäännökset denote more specific, often delegated-regulatory provisions that authorities implement and enforce in day-to-day administration.
