View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 121 to 123, inclusive, together.
My Department recently conducted a public consultation on the proposed Government Statement on Economic Regulation. The closing date for this consultation was 17 May 2013 and in excess of 20 submissions have been received. Each submission is now being carefully analysed by officials in my Department and will provide an important input in framing the upcoming Government Policy Statement on Economic Regulation. It is intended that the submissions from the consultation will be published on my Department's website, once the analysis has been completed and the Statement published. The Regulatory Forum last met in June 2011 and the views of stakeholders as to its future remit have been sought as part of the wider public consultation on economic regulation.
