RIA      Better Regulation

 

What is Better Regulation?


Better regulation is a concept consisting of the principles specified below and implemented by the EU and OECD countries with its various dimensions:

  • Proportionality: The regulators should only intervene if necessary. The solutions proposed should include minimum risks and costs.

  • Accountability: The regulators should logically justify their decisions and be open to public inspection.

  • Consistent: Rules and standards should be consistent and the implementation should be fair.

  • Transparency: The regulators should be open to all kinds of views and proposals and make simple, clear and user-friendly regulations.

  • Targeted: A regulation should be problem targeted and minimize the side effects.

  • Locality: A regulation should be formulated at the closest point to the public.

  • Accessibility: A regulation should be accessible by users via information technology and the process should be facilitated.

 

Main mechanisms used to execute these principles are as follows:

·      Regulatory Impact Analysis (RIA)

·      Stakeholder participation

·      Simplification and review

·      Measurement and evaluation

·      Decrease of administrative burden and red-tape

·      E-state applications

·      Efficiency of implementation
