Whether notification can create the power of direct cognizance where the parent statute itself did not expressly confer one?

 The statement means that a notification issued by the government cannot create a new legal power unless the Act itself has already granted that power in clear terms. In other words, if the parent statute does not authorize direct cognizance, an executive notification cannot manufacture that authority by itself because delegated legislation must remain within the limits of the statute from which it derives force.
