    The case involved Pangasinan Transportation Co. (PANTRANCO) applying for authorization to operate 10 additional trucks from the Public Service Commission (PSC). The PSC granted the application but added conditions, including that the service could be acquired by the government upon payment of cost price less depreciation and that the certificate would only be valid for a definite period. The Supreme Court upheld the PSC's authority to impose such conditions, finding a valid delegation of administrative powers to the Commission.

    Pangasinan Transportation Co. vs.

    Public Service Commission

    G.R. No. 47065


    June 26, 1940
    Laurel, J.
    Fact:
    PANTRANCO, a holder of an existing Certificate of Public Convenience is applying to
    operate additional buses with the Public Service Commission (PSC) has been engaged
    in transporting passengers in certain provinces by means of public transportation
    utility. Patranco applied for authorization to operate 10 additional trucks. The PSC
    granted the application but added several conditions for PANTRANCO’s compliance.
    One is that the service can be acquired by government upon payment of the cost price
    less depreciation, and that the certificate shall be valid only for a definite period of
    time.
    Issue:
    Whether or not PSC can impose said conditions.
    Ruling:
    The Supreme Court held that there was valid delegation of powers.
    The theory of the separation of powers is designed by its originators to secure action at
    the same time forestall over action which necessarily results from undue
    concentration of powers and thereby obtain efficiency and prevent deposition. But due
    to the growing complexity of modern life, the multiplication of subjects of
    governmental regulation and the increased difficulty of administering laws, there is a
    constantly growing tendency toward the delegation of greater powers by the
    legislature, giving rise to the adoption, within certain limits, of the principle of
    “subordinate legislation.”
    All that has been delegated to the Commission is the administrative function, involving
    the use of discretion to carry out the will of the National Assembly having in view, in
    addition, the promotion of public interests in a proper and suitable manner.
