Does the standard of review apply to a determination made by the Department of Education?
The following excerpt is from Schenectady Police Benev. Ass'n v. New York State Public Employment Relations Bd., 626 N.Y.S.2d 715, 650 N.E.2d 373, 85 N.Y.2d 480 (N.Y. 1995):
First, concerning the standard of review, we recognize that an administrative agency's determination requires deference in the area of its expertise (see, Rosen v. Public Empl. Relations Bd., 72 N.Y.2d 42, 47-48, 530 N.Y.S.2d 534, 526 N.E.2d 25). Where, however, the matters at issue involve statutory interpretation, such deference is inapplicable (id.; Matter of Webster Cent. School Dist. v. Public Empl. Relations Bd., 75 N.Y.2d 619, 626, 555 N.Y.S.2d 245, 554 N.E.2d 886). This case involves only statutory interpretation.
