Definition: Ordinance is a law that has been enacted by a government, usually through legislation in the form of an Act or Statute of Parliament. The main difference between an Act and a statute lies in whether it has a more formal legal authority or an informal one, as it can have more precise wording. Ordinances are generally more flexible than statutes, but they can also be enforced by law enforcement agencies under the supervision of magistrates or police officers.
