The Government has agreed to an initiative to improve the resources available to agencies when they prepare regulation impact statements (RISs). Under this initiative, the Office of Best Practice Regulation (OBPR) can provide outposted officers (on a cost offsetting basis) to assist agencies in the preparation of RISs and post-implementation reviews (PIRs). This will formalise arrangements which have been operating from time to time. The initiative covers Australian Government and Council of Australian Government best practice regulation requirements which are both administered by the OBPR. More information on this initiative is included in this attachment.
