The types of Negotiable instruments are largely determined based upon the scope of definition given to negotiable instruments and specification of the instruments legally recognized as negotiable in that country’s law. In most countries, the scope of negotiable instruments is limited to commercial papers. i.e. to instrument other than cash, entitling the holder or the person whose name is specified on the paper, the payment of money. In this sense, negotiable instruments may be classified as order to pay [ Bills of exchange and cheque] and promises to pay (promissory notes). In the first class the person issuing the instrument (the drawer) gives a clear order to another 3rd party (Drawee) to make payment to holder or specified person on the instrument. In the second category there is no order to be given, but the maker of the instrument (promissor) binds himself and promises the beneficiary (the promisee) to pay a specified amount of money.

Defining an administrative agency is not an easy task. Agencies come in a huge array of sizes and shape. This is coupled with their wide ranging and complex functions and their power to legislate and adjudicate, in addition, to their normal executive powers, makes it challenging and difficult to precisely provide a precise and concise definition covering all these aspects of the administrative process. |
