This page is about a bill. That means that it's not the law yet, but some people want it to be the law. It could change quickly, and some of the information is just a draft.

Regulatory Standards Bill
Principles of responsible regulation and regulatory stewardship - Act does not confer or impose legal rights or obligations or affect validity
26: Act does not regulate reasons
"This law doesn't tell you how to explain your reasons"

This part of the bill says that if the law passes, it won't tell you how to explain your reasons. When you write a statement under subpart 2 or subpart 3, you can explain your reasons however you want. The law won't say how much or how little you need to explain. It also won't tell you what kind of reasons you should give.
