Vol. 384 No. 5

Written Answers. - Departmental Requirements Imposed on Business.

164.

asked the Minister for the Environment the regulation, practice and information requirement which has been modified by his Department as a result of the decision of the Government last May that each Minister review all such regulations, practices and information requirements which have a cost impact on business and industry.

The review by my Department of the statutory and information requirements of the Department and bodies under their aegis which may have a cost impact on business and industry has not disclosed any specific requirements which could be terminated or substantially modified. Controls operated by the Department and local authorities tend to be non-recurring and it is the policy of the Department to keep its operations and those of local authorities under review, so as to ensure that necessary burdens on business and on the public generally, are kept as light as possible.
