Notes de l'éditeur

  1. In order to give this talk I had to turn it on its head by taking about Regulation Environment Enforcement Effectiveness Delivery
  2. THE BENEFITS OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE ENVIRONMENTAL ACQUIS FOR THE CANDIDATE COUNTRIES DG ENV CONTRACT ECOTEC Research & Consulting Limited UK
  3. Strategy . Pursue a strategic, rather than piecemeal, approach to law-making for broad environmental policy sectors. Definitions . Provide clear and unambiguous definitions for key terms. Make definitions consistent between laws unless there is good reason for difference. Requirements . Ensure that the requirements of the law are clear, and appropriate to deliver the aims of the legislation. Timeframes . Ensure that timeframes for implementation are clear and practical. Check that the timeframes of different laws fit realistically. Proportionality . Ensure that the requirements of legislation are proportionate to the risks and hazards they address. Reporting . Only require reporting that will support implementation of the law or give useful feedback on its effectiveness. Harmonise reporting requirements across different laws. Revision . Make provision in the law for a simplified process (where the Treaties allow this) to quickly review and revise parts of the law if initial implementation reveals problems of practicability and enforceability.
  4. Faced with so many regulations, sometimes not written very well and so many issues to be resolve on the ground where do you begin to enforce effectively I am proposing that DRINC is the answer The first shot of DRINC is:
  5. The second shot of DRINC is:
  6. The Third shot of DRINC is:
  7. The fourth shot of DRINC is:
  8. The last call for DRINC is:
  9. WHO define health not just as an absence of disease or infirmity, but rather, it is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing . There are many health factors that are beyond the control or influence of regulatory agencies; however, the issue of TRUST is considered central to one’s sense of wellbeing. Building of trust in communities is key to the implementation and enforcement of environmental law
  10. I will finish with a quote from a book called the “The Regulatory Craft” , by Malcolm Sparrow (2000) “ Regulators, under unprecedented pressure, face a range of demands, often contradictory in nature: be less intrusive – but more effective; be kinder and gentler – but don’t let (them) get away with anything; focus your efforts – but be consistent; process things quicker – and be more careful next time; deal with important issues – but do not stray outside your statutory authority; be more responsive to the regulated community – but do not get captured by industry.” As you can see there are many challenges but we must meet them if we are to deliver effective enforcement of Environmental Legislation.
