Annex 1
PRINCIPLES OF
GOOD REGULATION
Proportionate: Regulators should
only intervene when necessary. Remedies should be appropriate
to the risk posed, and costs identified and minimised.
Accountable: Regulators must be able
to justify decisions, and be subject to public scrutiny.
Consistent: Government rules and
standards must be joined up and implemented fairly.
Transparent: Regulators should be
open, and keep regulations simple and user friendly.
Targeted: Regulation should be focused
on the problem, and minimise side effects.
