Does the Congress have the constitutional authority to delegate its powers?

Question

Likewise does departments of the government have authority to delegate their duties. I'm thinking of the Treasury Department that uses the IRS for collection of income taxes and if the IRS is a quasi-private body- how can they be represented by the Justice Department?

Answer 1

Congress has the authority to pass laws that authorize departments to create regulations concerning specific subjects. Congress created the FCC and the FCC creates rules that regulate the use of the RF spectrum.

A government department can outsource operations to contractors. The IRS is not a "quasi-private body". It has no private ownership of any kind. It is a division of the Treasury Department. It is more a government department than the postal service.

I have asked time and time again for ANYONE to show me a reference to ANYTHING that is not an opinion piece that shows that the IRS is anything other than a government agency. No one can.

Despite our e-mail conversation you still have not provided ONE link that proves your position. You have lost all credibility.

Answer 2

No. The Congress can't delegate their powers. And the IRS isn't a quasi-governmental body. It's an independent agency within the Executive Branch of government, along with the Federal Communications Commission and a few others.
Any civil or criminal action against civilians by any executive branch agency has to be handled by the Justice Department. Even the Defense Department has to do that when dealing with civilians.
