BusinessNZ says a move to improve law-making is well overdue.
Today the Regulatory Standards Bill was drawn from the members’ ballot in Parliament.
BusinessNZ Chief Executive Kirk Hope said the Bill would be welcomed by the business sector which bears a heavy compliance burden from regulation.
“Small and medium businesses have repeatedly told us about the severe load of regulation, and over-regulation of business is a constant concern coming through surveys conducted by BusinessNZ.
“Previous attempts to get better law-making standards in our Parliament – including an earlier Regulatory Responsibility Bill and recent moves to require regulatory impact analysis in proposed legislation – have not been successful.

The proposed Regulatory Standards Bill has been welcomed by Energy Resources Aotearoa as a useful tool in developing better public policy.
The Bill was drawn from the members ballot at Parliament on Thursday.
âThis should help deliver better policy and better outcomes for New Zealanders,â says chief executive John Carnegie.
âIt just makes sense for any proposed legislation to be judged against a set of clear criteria to demonstrate its merits. It should be well founded and have gone through a robust process of development.
âThis is especially true for energy policy which has a major impact on jobs and the cost of living.
