Investigation Into the Burden of Regulation in NSW and Improving Regulatory Efficiency
"Effective regulation is essential to a well-functioning economy and helps create a safe and just society. Regulations provide governments with a powerful means of achieving social, environmental and economic goals. However, regulation also imposes administrative and compliance burdens on business, consumers, government and the wider community. In recent times, business groups have expressed concern that there is too much regulation and that it is too costly. They have also expressed concern about excessive, overlapping, duplicative, inconsistent and complex regulation. Where these burdens are unnecessary, they can impede competition, productivity, investment and innovation. In response to these concerns, the NSW Government has asked the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal of NSW (the Tribunal) to undertake an overarching review of the regulation that affects the NSW community."--P. 1.

The Impact of Regulatory Costs on Small Firms
This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The annual cost of federal regulations in the U.S. increased to more than $1.75 trillion in 2008. Had every U.S. household paid an equal share of the federal regulatory burden, each would have owed $15,586 in 2008. While all citizens and businesses pay some portion of these costs, the distribution of the burden of regulations is quite uneven. The portion of regulatory costs that falls initially on businesses was $8,086 per employee in 2008. Small businesses, defined as firms employing fewer than 20 employees, bear the largest burden of federal regulations. This report shows that as of 2008, small businesses face an annual regulatory cost of $10,585 per employee, which is 36% higher than the regulatory cost facing large firms (500+ employees). Ill.

Regulatory Burden
This report builds on a previous report regarding what business said were the 125 federal regulations that were most problematic for them. This report examines the assertions by federal agencies that some of the regulatory concerns were attributable, in part, to the underlying statutes. It determines: the amount of discretion the underlying statutes gave the rulemaking agencies in developing the regulatory requirements; whether the regulatory requirements at issue were within the authority granted by the underlying statutes; and whether the rulemaking agencies could have developed regulatory approaches that would have been less burdensome to business while still meeting the underlying statutes requirements.

Annual Review of Regulatory Burdens on Business
The Productivity Commission's latest report, Annual Review of Regulatory Burdens on Business: Social and Economic Infrastructure Services Sector - identifies ways to reduce the regulatory burdens on businesses in aged care, health, child care, education, information media and telecommunications, energy and transport. The Commission found that much of the regulation in the sector has the desirable objective of managing risk and ensuring service quality. But it can have the unintended consequence of reducing businesses' flexibility in responding to consumer and user requirements, as well as adding a cost burden to their operation. Inconsistency of regulations across jurisdictions in the transport, education and energy sectors remains also a continuing concern, despite governments' agreements for reform. There needs to be a movement beyond these high level agreements to substantially reduce the regulatory burden faced by businesses, according to the Productivity Commission.
