Regulatory Standards Bill

Regulatory reviews and information-gathering powers - Regulatory review reports

41: Regulatory review reports

You could also call this:

"Reports on how well rules are working"

This part of the bill talks about what happens when the government checks how well rules and laws are working.

When the special government office that looks after rules checks any part of the system of rules, they have to write a report. They need to give this report to the minister in charge of rules as soon as they can after they finish checking.

The minister then has a job to do. They need to show the report to the people who make laws in New Zealand. This happens in a place called the House of Representatives. The minister also has to write down what the government thinks about the report and show that to the House of Representatives too.

The minister needs to do this as quickly as they can after they get the report. This way, the people who make laws can see what the government found out about how the rules are working and what they plan to do about it.
