Therefore, there have been expressed diverse views about the nature of the regulations by scholars to answer this question that whether the nature of these regulations is policymaking, lawmaking or rulemaking? with regard to this issue that the  policymaking is based on the principle of rule of law and predetermined competence of legislature from one side and as well as if we consider this council as a lawmaker institution, we contradict the exclusive competence of parliament in legislating on the other hand, and also with regard to this issue that the devolution of competence for rulemaking is in the legislature competence, therefore it seems unlikely to  consider the regulations of the council as one of the aforementioned titles and imagine legal effect for them. Therefore, in this paper I attend to clear the nature of this regulations and I'll  try to with regard to the council's regulations examine this issue that whether these regulations are adaptable to these notions (policy making, lawmaking and rulemaking) or not? <br />  <br /><strong>Keywords:</strong> Supreme Council of Cultural Revolution, Discretion, Policymaking, Lawmaking, Regulation. <strong>Abstract</strong> <br />The nature of the regulations of the supreme council of cultural revolution in the legal system and hierarchy of law sources, have preoccupied some researchers and the recognizing the status of these regulations seems necessary.
