Download or read book Annual Review of Regulatory Burdens on Business written by Productivity Commission and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Productivity Commission Report - Annual Review of Regulatory Burdens on Business: Business and Consumer Services Sector - identifies ways to reduce the regulatory burdens on businesses in the finance and insurance, accommodation and food services, professional, scientific and technical services, and arts and recreational services sectors. Notwithstanding some progress, there is still duplication and inconsistency in regulations between different jurisdictions of Australia's federation that are hard to justify. These include those regulations applying to migration lawyers, architects, and property laws. Removing or reducing such inconsistencies will reduce business costs and increase the scope for better, cheaper services for the community. Consultation processes remain a weak point when developing regulations. In many areas consultation lacks transparency, continuity and time frames are too short. The Commission identified several key areas where regulations can be made less burdensome for business while maintaining or improving services. These include harmonising personal and corporate insolvency laws, changes to regulations related to superannuation, changes to the treatment of foreign investors in commercial real estate and changes in the regulation of what should be included on restaurant menus.
Download or read book Australia s Biodiversity and Climate Change written by Will Steffen and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2009 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Australia's unique biodiversity is under threat from a rapidly changing climate. The effects of climate change are already discernible at all levels of biodiversity - genes, species, communities and ecosystems. Many of Australia's most valued and iconic natural areas - the Great Barrier Reef, south-western Australia, the Kakadu wetlands and the Australian Alps - are among the most vulnerable. But much more is at stake than saving iconic species or ecosystems. Australia's biodiversity is fundamental to the country's national identity, economy and quality of life. In the face of uncertainty about specific climate scenarios, ecological and management principles provide a sound basis for maximising opportunities for species to adapt, communities to reorganise and ecosystems to transform while maintaining basic functions critical to human society. This innovative approach to biodiversity conservation under a changing climate leads to new challenges for management, policy development and institutional design. This book explores these challenges, building on a detailed analysis of the interactions between a changing climate and Australia's rich but threatened biodiversity. Australia's Biodiversity and Climate Change is an important reference for policy makers, researchers, educators, students, journalists, environmental and conservation NGOs, NRM managers, and private landholders with an interest in biodiversity conservation in a rapidly changing world."--Publisher.
