Thank you for the clarity of your explanations. I’m even more alarmed now by the ways the government is behaving.

Having regulatory impact assessments for legislation being repealed is an opportunity to review the original regulatory impact statement and comment on the extent to which its expectations were met.

Have you read Jane Kelseys background on RIS'? Interesting ideological perspective on their role as part of ACT policy in 08 - with connections to today. Especially given the regulatory standards bill is expected back.

Also, I would add that RIS's vary in quality quite a lot. There's value in that - sometimes you have time, sometimes you don't. In cases like this, it means something could still be thrown together which might not meet usual quality standards but wouldn't hold up progress on legislation.
