Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of regulatory impact assessment has long needed a critical evaluation. This volume, which is interdisciplinary and international, and combines academic and practitioner insights, hits the spot to great effect. Colin Scott, UCD College of Business and Law and UCD School of Law, Ireland Better state regulation is a key component of economic reform. This is the first book to comprehensively explore international experience in the use of Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA), which involves assessing the potential benefits and costs of any regulatory change. The contributors reveal that RIA is being adopted by an increasing number of countries as a route to better regulation with varying degrees of success. The book includes contributions from leading experts on regulatory reform and introduces a range of case studies from developed, developing and transitional economies. Comprehensive in its approach, this book contributes to the literature on evidence-based decision making as part of the new public management. By rigorously examining the principles of better regulation and focusing on the problem of applicability and adoption of RIA practices around the world, it will greatly aid understanding of regulatory policy design and implementation. The book will be invaluable for academics and researchers of public policy and management in developed, developing and transitional countries. It will also be of great practical relevance to government administrators and policymakers challenged by the need to understand the scope and limitations of RIA.

Download or read book Handbook of Regulatory Impact Assessment written by Claire A. Dunlop and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulatory impact assessment (RIA) is the main instrument used by governments and regulators to appraise the likely effects of their policy proposals. This pioneering Handbook provides a comparative and comprehensive account of this tool, situating it in the relevant theoretical traditions and scrutinizing its use across countries, policy sectors and policy instruments. Comprising six parts, university researchers, international consultants and practitioners working in international organizations examine regulatory impact assessment from many perspectives, which include: • research traditions in the social sciences • implementation, regulatory indicators and effects • tools and dimensions such as courts and gender • sectoral case studies including environment, enterprise and international development • international diffusion in the European Union (EU), Americas, Asia and developing countries • appraisal, training and education. With its wealth of detail and lessons to be learned, the Handbook of Regulatory Impact Assessment will undoubtedly be of great value to practitioners and scholars working in governance, political science and socio-legal studies.

Download or read book Regulatory quality in Europe written by Claudio Radaelli and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union and its member states are investing in ambitious programmes for ‘better regulation’ and targets of regulatory quality. This book, available in paperback for the first time, lifts the veil of excessively optimistic propositions covering the whole better regulation agenda. It provides an innovative conceptual framework to handle the political complexity of regulatory governance. It approaches better regulation as an emerging public policy, with its own political context, actors, problems, rules of interaction, instruments, activities and impacts. Focusing on the key tools of impact assessment, consultation, simplification, and access to legislation, the authors provide fresh empirical evidence on the progress made in the member states and in Brussels, drawing on an extensive research project and an original survey of directors of better regulation programmes in Europe. Radaelli and De Francesco show how indicators define, measure, and appraise better regulation policy, linking measures to policy processes in which the stakeholders learn by monitoring. Although better regulation is a top priority for competitiveness in Europe and the legitimacy of EU policy, the level of commitment and the development of tools vary considerably. The major challenge for better regulation is institutionalisation - this calls for clear choices in terms of what the EU wants from better regulation. Essential reading for academics (political scientists, lawyers, and public economists) and policy-makers in charge of regulatory reforms in governments and international organisations.

Download or read book Better Regulatory Impact Assessment written by Kai P. Purnhagen and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Commission's New Better Regulation Strategy of 2015 (NBRS) seeks to address shortcomings of Old Better Regulation by promoting an approach resembling what elsewhere has been called responsive behavioural regulation. By discussing the weaknesses of Old Better Regulation, we argue that limited validity of its preferred methodology, CBA, poses core issues. Differentiating between internal (legal and scientific) and external (social) validity, we find that legal evaluation and behavioural insights need to be included in a structured manner into RIA to provide a robust methodology which matches state of the art standards in science and societal dialogue. First, NBR has to acknowledge that it operates in a legal environment of EU law, where some decisions are already predetermined. Generic EU law hence already contains certain requirements at normative level, which need to be taken into account when developing NBR strategies. Second, the methods applied for IA have to ensure a degree of internal and external validity that is acceptable for regulatory purposes. In order to meet the value commitments embedded in EU law on the assessment of impacts of EU legislation and to provide internal and external validity in a structured manner we propose to use the “homo oeconomicus institutionalis” model as a guidance for methodological design of RIA.

Download or read book Better Regulation Impact Assessment in Telecommunications written by Ewan Sutherland and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Better regulation is intended to serve as a framework to increase economic competitiveness, ensuring that legislation and rules imposed by all levels of government are proportionate and will help deliver more jobs and economic growth. Legislation and regulations at all levels which might have a social or economic effect are tested thoroughly and systematically. This involves the generation of a range of options and their evaluation, including consultation with those likely to be affected: consumers, small businesses and enterprises, as well as operators and service providers. Final decisions are based on careful evaluation of the options, together with the views expressed and the data submitted. They are open to re-evaluation on appeal. The European Union has adopted formal procedures for impact assessment. These have been subject to review and re-assessment, based on experience across all economic sectors. They have been widely applied (e.g., to international mobile roaming and to energy efficiency of consumer electronics). The United Kingdom was an early mover in better regulation, implementing a framework and setting targets, then reviewing and renewing the initiatives. In telecommunications both its ministry and its regulator conduct impact assessments. In the Republic of Ireland the government adopted a white paper on better regulation and guidelines for regulatory impact assessments. Such assessments have been widely adopted across government, including by its telecommunications regulator. The OECD has coordinated work on better regulation and impact assessment across its member states and also has activities with developing countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation is one of the principal instruments available to government to achieve its objectives, but it can impose costs both as a necessary consequence of the regulation and as an unintended side effect. For every regulatory proposal where such an impact is expected, government departments and agencies are required to prepare a regulatory impact assessment (RIA). The Committee's report considers the actions of the Cabinet Office and the Small Business Service to encourage the application of the principles of good regulation across government, to take account of the burden on small businesses and to improve the quality of regulatory impact assessments.

Download or read book Business Regulation and Public Policy written by André Nijsen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-12-03 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, businesses have complained about the costs of regulatory compliance. On the other hand, society is becoming increasingly aware of the environmental, safety, health, financial, and other risks of business activity. Government oversight seems to be one of the answers to safeguard against these risks. But how can we deregulate and regulate without jeopardizing our public goals or acting as a brake on economic growth? Many instruments are available to assess the effects of laws regulating business, including the regulatory impact assessment (RIA), which contains cost/benefit analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, risk analysis, and cost assessments. This book argues that public goals will be achieved more effectively if compliance costs of the enterprises are as low as possible. Highlighting examples from a wide spectrum of industries and countries, the authors propose a new kind of RIA, the business impact assessment (BIA), designed to improve both business and public policy decision making.
