A year ago, the Government established the Smarter Regulation Programme to re-energise regulatory reform and capitalise on the benefits of Brexit: reduce burdens on business, push down the cost of living and drive growth across the country. This is part of our plan to deliver long-term economic security and opportunity.
I am pleased to be able to invite you to a briefing with Lord Johnson, Minister for Investment and Regulatory Reform on the publication of two new papers. Firstly, ‘Smarter Regulation: One Year On – May 2024’ which details our progress so far, with over 30 smarter regulation announcements reducing burdens on businesses and improving outcomes for citizens.
Secondly, our White Paper ‘Smarter Regulation: Delivering a regulatory environment for innovation, investment and growth’ outlines an ambitious plan to deliver better outcomes for consumers, businesses and society. Although the UK’s regulatory landscape is recognised internationally as a model of best practice, there is room for significant improvement. The White Paper sets out our ambition to work with regulators to deliver a world-class service to consumers and businesses, and to help stimulate innovation and drive economic growth.
The event will take place on Thursday, 16 May, from 15.00 to 16.00. You can register for this event here.
Best regards,
