Clause 72
Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [Lords]
1:15 pm
Mark Prisk (Shadow Minister, Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform; Hertford and Stortford, Conservative)
In the light of the duty and the knowledge that the Government intend to establish regulatory budgets, how does the Minister see the two policies interweaving? I can see a connection, but it would be helpful to understand how that will work. There is a new duty not to have unnecessary burdens, and he has just spoken about wanting to encourage regulators to use their resources appropriately. How does that fit into a regulatory budget environment?
