Regulatory policy
Better Regulation Practices across the European Union
Laws and regulations affect the daily lives of businesses and citizens. High-quality
laws promote national welfare and growth, while badly designed laws hinder growth,
harm the environment and put the health of citizens at risk. This report analyses
practices to improve the quality of laws and regulations across all 28 EU Member States
and the European Union. It systematically assesses the use of evidence and stakeholder
participation in the design and review of domestic laws and regulations based on the
OECD Indicators of Regulatory Policy and Governance. It also provides insights into
individual Member States’ use of regulatory management tools as they relate to EU
laws. The report presents good regulatory practices and highlights areas that should
receive further attention and investment.
