Delivering High Quality Impact Assessments

Government is committed to conducting formal impact assessments of the need for and likely impact of new regulations. This National Audit Office report finds that scrutiny of proposed legislation is strengthening and that the standard is better than it was, but one fifth of assessments still do not include any quantified data to assess costs or benefits. The Better Regulation Executive (BRE) has introduced new guidance, templates and training to improve the quality of impact assessments and, as a result, impact assessments have clearer presentation of results, better planning for implementation, and more quantification of costs and benefits. But wide variation remains between the best and wo...

Providing budget support to developing countries

Budget support is aid provided directly to a partner government's central exchequer, and aims to reduce poverty through helping to fund the poverty reduction strategy of the beneficiary country. DFID's use of budget support has risen to £461 million, representing nearly twenty per cent of bilateral expenditure. This study examines the aims of budget support, what it is achieving, how DFID manages the risks of using it and how DFID takes individual funding decisions. The report finds that budget support has: often enabled partner governments to increase expenditure on priority areas; resulted in partner governments providing more services, particularly in health and education; helped increas...

Evaluation of regulatory impact assessments 2006-07

This NAO report evaluates the quality of Regulatory Impact Assessments (RIAs) produced by the Department of Health and the Department for Communities and Local Government, and considers how these departments are seeking to raise standards and improve their use. The aim of RIAs is to assess the need for, and impact of, proposed regulations and amendments to existing regulations. They are a tool to help policy makers understand the consequences of possible Government regulation. RIAs are required for all forms of government intervention that impose, or reduce, costs on businesses, the third sector or the public sector. The NAO concludes that RIAs were not always being used effectively. That th...

Tackling anti-social behaviour

  • Categories: Law

Anti-social behaviour encompasses a broad range of behaviours including nuisance behaviour, intimidation and vandalism. Seventeen per cent of the population perceive high levels of anti-social behaviour in their area, with the young and the less well off being disproportionately affected, at a cost to government agencies of responding to reports of anti-social behaviour in England and Wales of around £3.4 billion per year. This report examines the work of the Home Office's Anti-Social Behaviour Unit set up in 2003 and measures introduced by the Home Office since 1997 to tackle anti-social behaviour, focusing on the impact of three of the most commonly used interventions: warning letters, Ac...

Et si, au lieu de lutter contre le désir qui nous pousse l’un vers l’autre, on essayait d’y céder ? Dans la bouche de n’importe quel autre homme, cette proposition aurait sonné comme une provocation. Mais pas dans celle de D.C. Campbell, Fiona doit bien l’admettre. Car, à chaque fois qu’elle se trouve en présence de cet homme qu’elle connaît à peine, tout se passe comme si, soudain, elle perdait toute capacité de penser et n’avait plus qu’une envie : se jeter dans ses bras et découvrir le goût de ses lèvres. Une attraction irrésistible, et à l’évidence réciproque, à en juger par ses regards brûlants... Aussi D.C. a-t-il raison sur au moins un point : il leur faut trouver un moyen de sortir de cette situation bien trop gênante, d’autant qu’ils vont devoir travailler ensemble et qu’il est hors de question de laisser leurs instincts interférer dans leur travail. Dans ces conditions, ne serait-il pas raisonnable de considérer sérieusement la proposition de D.C. ?
