No, salutary neglect was when the British neglected to enforce what was going on in the colonies, while the navigation acts were restricted and/or abolished the colonists trade with countries other then Britain, mercantilism. So salutary neglect was exactly the opposite of "enforcing" anything.

Why did Britain pursue a policy of salutary neglect towards her American colonies?
Britain pursued a policy of salutary neglect toward her American colonies because Britain wanted obedience from them and without restrictions, the colonies would flourish. Salutary neglect is an undocumented, though longstanding, British policy of avoiding strict enforcement of parliamentary laws, meant to keep the American colonies obedient to Great Britain. Britain also passed unjust laws and many different acts upon the colonists to keep their loyalty towards them. Salutary neglect was a main factor for many battles and wars and it was mainly so Britain wouldn't lose the colonists' loyalty and they would stay under their government.
How did salutary neglect lead to legislative assemblies?
I am wondering the same thing and what I've gotten so far is that because of salutary neglect, citizens were able to form their own legislative assemblies and were free to make their own decisions. ------ Legislative Assemblies did not form beause of "salutary neglect." It did, however, lead to stronger Legislative Assemblies. Legislative Assemblies were formed out of the same principle of the British House of Commons. The principle of government in the House of Commons was that government should represent the people. Englishmen in the North American colonies called for the same institution in their own colony. Of course, 'the people' only refered to property holders in nearly all colonies. At various times, each colony was permitted to develop its own assembly which, in theory, was supposed to be subordinated to the executive branch, the Royal colonial governments. Through what historians call "salutary neglect," the English government did not strictly enforce laws on its North American colonies, nor did it provide back-up support to the Royal Governors. As a result, the Royal Governors' power was less than it should have been, and they had to cooperate with the assemblies. This gave the assemblies much greater power within their own colony.
