Description

Effective regulation is essential to a well-functioning economy, promoting environmental sustainability, and creating a safe and just society. Regulations provide governments with a powerful means of achieving policy goals and desired outcomes. However, poorly designed regulations can impose unnecessary costs on business, consumers, government and the wider community. This resource presents guidelines designed to assist ministry officials in their analysis of proposed regulations to ensure the regulatory means of responding to a problem are the most efficient available and the objective of a regulation continues to be relevant.
