PURPOSE:
- To examine experiences of state and international governments engaged in regulatory reform and to discuss best practices that may be beneficial if implemented in the U.S.
BACKGROUND:
- Beginning in October 2017, the Committee held a series of three hearings on the implementation of two executive orders that form the foundation of the Administration’s regulatory reform agenda.
- The concept of regulatory budgeting and the one-in-two-out system found in these executive orders was first implemented in Canada and the UK as early as 2001.
- Australia and the state of Kentucky have also undertaken significant regulatory reform efforts in recent years.
