The OECD is launching a public consultation on draft Best Practice Principles for Improving Regulatory Enforcement and Inspections.
The goal of this consultation document is to present a basis for discussion on key issues as well as some key principles on which effective and efficient regulatory enforcement and inspections should be based in pursuit of the best compliance outcomes and highest regulatory quality. The principles address the design of the policies, institutions and tools to promote effective compliance – and the process of reforming inspection services to achieve results. Each of the principles represent a recommendation on one of the main issues for successful reforms and is accompanied by an explanatory text.
