This document provides an overview of Australia's regulatory impact analysis system and the role of the Office of Best Practice Regulation. Key points include:
- Australia has a federal system of government with law-making powers shared between the Commonwealth and states/territories.
- The Office of Best Practice Regulation assesses Regulation Impact Statements and provides guidance to ensure regulatory proposals are supported by evidence and cost-benefit analysis.
- Developing a Regulation Impact Statement involves identifying the problem, policy options, costs and benefits of each option, and stakeholders to consult to determine the best option.

The document discusses alternatives to regulation that can be considered by the UK government. It outlines the UK regulatory framework and the role of independent regulatory bodies in scrutinizing new policies and requiring justification for regulations over non-regulatory options. Alternatives to regulation mentioned include industry self-regulation, voluntary codes of practice, awareness campaigns, and simplifying existing regulations. Challenges in considering alternatives include incentivizing government departments to explore a wide range of options early in the policy process and better evaluating the effectiveness of alternative approaches.

Processes and institutions for effective ex post evaluationOECD Governance
This document summarizes a breakout session at an OECD conference on measuring regulatory performance. The session discussed developing more systematic approaches to joint ex-post evaluation across policy instruments. While ex-ante evaluation is undertaken more systematically than ex-post, ex-post approaches vary and oversight is often weak. The session aimed to promote synergies between regulatory and expenditure evaluation, such as common frameworks and transparency norms. Questions focused on practical examples of joint evaluations, their value, and enabling better collaboration between institutions.

Implementation consists of organized government activities directed at achieving policy goals and objectives. It involves putting authorized policies into effect according to a plan. Implementation inspires little public or political interest, though politics can still influence the process through noncompliance. Effective implementation requires that policies are clear and simple, specify roles and structures, have committed leadership, and maintain priority and support over time despite changing conditions.
While this list represents the desirable attributes of indicators most useful for these purposes, it is recognized that few indicators are likely to meet all of these criteria.
Hence, these criteria serve as a benchmark for weighing the potential costs and benefits of selecting one indicator over another.

This document provides guidelines for establishing an effective compliance program for Medicare Advantage and New York Medicaid health plans. It discusses 8 key elements that should be included: written policies and procedures, designation of a compliance officer, training and education, communication lines, disciplinary policies, identification of risk areas, responding to issues, and a policy of non-retaliation. The guidelines describe how to implement each element, including developing a code of conduct, compliance policies, and procedures to address legal and ethical standards, prevent fraud and abuse, and promote a culture of compliance. Establishing a robust compliance program can help health plans comply with regulations and mitigate legal and reputational risks.
This document provides a strategic advocacy framework to help organizations like Chintan monitor and evaluate their advocacy efforts. It recommends that Chintan develop a theory of change to integrate its programs, goals, and mission. The framework includes defining goals and interim outcomes and tracking activities. Monitoring and evaluation can help Chintan understand what is effective, adapt strategies, and demonstrate progress. However, advocacy can be difficult to evaluate due to shifting timelines and strategies. The document provides recommendations for Chintan to plan advocacy in its organizational context and become a learning organization that regularly reviews lessons from its work.

This document provides guidelines and a rubric for Milestone One in the course PAD 630. Students are instructed to select an organizational, legal, or cultural challenge facing public administrators. They should draft an Introduction describing the selected challenge and a Theoretical Overview focusing on original advocates of public administration, the impact of Dwight Waldo and Herbert Simon, and Dwight Waldo's founding dichotomy of the field as it relates to the selected challenge. The submission should be 1-2 pages following APA style guidelines. The rubric evaluates students on introducing their challenge and addressing the required theoretical elements as they pertain to the chosen challenge.
1) The document discusses citizen engagement and the political-bureaucratic divide in government. It covers topics like client satisfaction, citizen-centered approaches, and measuring user satisfaction to improve government services.
2) A key difference between public and private sectors is that government provides public services that are non-excludable and non-rival, making user satisfaction difficult to measure. Citizen-centered approaches aim to empower citizens and ensure accountability.
3) Maintaining the distinct roles of elected political staff and unelected public servants is important to uphold democratic principles. Public servants must give unbiased advice while respecting the ultimate decision-making of politicians.
The document discusses ex ante and ex post approaches to regulatory impact assessment. Ex ante approaches involve projecting the effects of a policy change using economic modeling before implementation. Ex post approaches use historical data after a policy's enactment. The document also outlines key elements of ex ante impact assessments, including assessing fiscal, administrative, economic, social, and environmental impacts. Methodologies for ex ante impact assessments include cost-benefit analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, and multi-criteria analysis. Distributional analyses are also important to understand a policy's unintended consequences.
This document provides an impact assessment framework for evaluating small and medium enterprise (SME) finance policies. It discusses why impact evaluations are important for assessing SME policies and programs. The framework covers both experimental and non-experimental evaluation methods that can be used, including randomized control trials, difference-in-differences, instrumental variables, regression discontinuity, and propensity score matching. It provides examples of evaluations using these various methods and discusses operational considerations like budget, timing, and choosing the appropriate method. The goal is to help policymakers assess and improve SME interventions to maximize their effectiveness.
The document discusses Results Oriented Management and Accountability (ROMA), an initiative to promote effectiveness among agencies receiving anti-poverty funds. ROMA provides a framework focused on results-oriented management and accountability. It identifies six broad anti-poverty goals and presents a decision making cycle of assessing needs, planning, performing activities, and evaluating outcomes. The cycle involves identifying goals and measurable indicators for programs and monitoring achievements through comparing outputs to established goals.

Policy Impact,Evaluation and Change (CoOL J)nida19
The document discusses the final stage of the policy process, which is the evaluation of policy to assess its content, implementation, and effects throughout the process using various methods like systematic evaluation; however, policy evaluation faces challenges like uncertainty over goals and difficulty determining causality due to diffuse impacts. Proper policy evaluation is important to provide an understanding of a policy's actual impact and inform decision-making.
Feeling pressure to build revenues, many banks are turning to new products. It's up to boards and management to drive the risk mitigation planning process.
This document outlines the eight stages of policy formulation: 1) identifying the problem, 2) reviewing existing policies, 3) developing alternative solutions, 4) setting goals, 5) building public support, 6) legislating or announcing the policy, 7) implementing the policy, and 8) evaluating the policy. It defines policy as a formal statement by an organization to address issues like poverty or the environment. The stages involve thoroughly understanding the problem, exploring options, gaining support, enacting and enforcing the policy, and assessing its effectiveness.
1. The phases of organizational development (OD) include recognition of the need for change, diagnosis of problems, planning for change, intervention in the system, and evaluation and feedback.
2. During the diagnosis phase, the real problem is defined and examined by identifying the problem, what must change to resolve it, and the expected objectives of the change.
3. The planning phase involves transforming the diagnosis into an action plan with overall goals and the best approach and timeline for achieving them.
Ideas 4 Making Performance Management A Realityglad2bfirst
The document proposes strategies for improving performance management in a county government. It recommends communicating objectives and measures to various stakeholders through orientations, trainings, and community reporting. Key strategies include integrating performance management into the organizational culture, institutionalizing accountability, and prioritizing citizen input through surveys and a progress commission.
This document discusses strategy evaluation and control. It defines strategy evaluation as examining strategy bases, comparing expected vs. actual results, and taking corrective actions. Effective evaluation provides timely feedback and measures performance against objectives. The document outlines criteria for evaluating strategies, including consistency, consonance, feasibility, and competitive advantage. It also discusses measuring performance, taking corrective actions, overcoming resistance to change, and characteristics of an effective evaluation system.
The document discusses transparency and oversight of political party financing. It finds that financial contributions to political parties are not fully transparent and are still vulnerable to political and foreign influence. Additionally, financial reports from political parties are not always publicly available or submitted on time according to regulations.

Paris, 30 June, 2023
Presentation by Elsa Pilichowski, Director for Public Governance, OECD.
The 2023 edition of Government at a Glance provides a comprehensive overview of public governance and public administration practices in OECD Member and partner countries. It includes indicators on trust in public institutions and satisfaction with public services, as well as evidence on good governance practices in areas such as the policy cycle, budgeting, procurement, infrastructure planning and delivery, regulatory governance, digital government and open government data. Finally, it provides information on what resources public institutions use and how they are managed, including public finances, public employment, and human resources management. Government at a Glance allows for cross-country comparisons and helps identify trends, best practices, and areas for improvement in the public sector.

This document summarizes developments in sovereign green bond markets. It discusses approaches to incorporating environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors into public debt management. Sovereign green bond issuance has grown significantly in both advanced and emerging economies since 2016. Green bonds make up the largest share of the labeled bond market. Major benefits of sovereign green bonds include their positive impact on creditworthiness and alignment with ESG policies. However, issuers also face challenges such as additional costs and complexity of the issuance process. Common leading practices emphasize transparency, collaboration, and commitment to reporting.

2. Problem definition and RIA
What it is & why is it so important?
• A RIA starts by confirming whether a problem exists,
identifying its scale and who is affected, assessing the
cause(s) and consequences, and whether it would continue
in the absence of Government intervention.
• The answer to this analysis should give you the information
needed to decide whether there is a problem for which a
policy response may be warranted.
2
Step 1: Define the problem
3. • Governments should only regulate when necessary and in a
proportionate manner. High quality policy proposals are
built on a clear problem definition and understanding of
the underlying factors and behaviour.
• A problem can be caused by several factors - market
failure, the need to correct a socially undesirable outcome
etc. You should consider whether the problem is real or
perceived.
• Two key questions need to be answered:
1. How much does the ‘problem’ affect peoples’ daily
lives?
2. Whose behaviour would have to change for the
situation to improve?
3
Approach to defining the problem
4. Answering these questions will ensure your analysis is
focused, close to stakeholders’ concerns and mindful of the
practical implications of any initiative.
You should try & understand the scope of the issue:
1.Evidence about the nature of the problem.
2.The probability that it will occur and its likely frequency.
3.Who it will impact on.
4.Who is best placed to manage/resolve the problem.

6. The RIA Process: Checklist to define
the problem
Checklist
1.Confirm there is a problem
2. If there is a problem, identify it clearly
3. Consult relevant experts (e.g. Economists, academics)
4. Assess the scale of the problem
5. Consider who is best placed to manage / resolve the
problem (e.g. Government, the markets, the Unions)
Identify
the
problem

Step 1
7. Linking to objectives: SMART
Specific
Objectives should be precise and solid enough not to be open to varying
interpretations by different people.
Measurable
Objectives should define a desired future state in measurable terms, to allow
verification of their achievement. Such objectives are either quantified or
based on a combination of description and scoring scales.
Achievable
Policy aims must be set at a level, which is ambitious but at the same time
realistically achievable.
Relevant The objectives should be directly linked to the problem and its root causes.
Time- Bound
Objectives should be related to a fixed date or precise time period to allow an
evaluation of their achievement.

8. Step 1 -What is the problem?

..... by assembling all the relevant
information that we have. We need to
identify the gaps in our understanding.
Being precise
and specific in
explaining the
problem usually
leads to better
results

9. Iterative 2007-2016
What is the problem under consideration? Why is
government intervention necessary?
• The Hampton Report (Reducing Administrative Burdens:
effective inspection and enforcement, HM Treasury:
2005) raised two issues regarding the enforcement of
regulation by local authorities:
a) Inconsistency. The existing, diffuse, structure of local
authority regulation increases uncertainty and
administrative burdens for business who are required to
deal with different approaches throughout the country
9
10. Iterative
What is the problem under consideration? Why is
government intervention necessary?
b) Lack of co-ordination: the lack of a central
communications function results in duplication of effort at
local level, and overall approaches which are insufficiently
strategic.
10
11. What is the problem under consideration? Why is
government intervention necessary?
• The diffuse structure of local authority regulatory services
means that businesses frequently face problems associated
with inconsistency of enforcement. Part 2 of the Regulatory
Enforcement and Sanctions Act 2008 (the Act) created the
framework for the Primary Authority scheme, which is
designed to ensure coordinated, consistent and
proportionate local authority regulatory enforcement for
those organisations that operate across more than one local
authority.

12. What is the problem under consideration?
Why is government intervention necessary?
•Part 2 of the Act contains a number of order-
making powers which are necessary to ensure
the practical effectiveness of the scheme. This
Impact Assessment details the application of
the Primary Authority scheme.

15. The journey towards consistency
• Business perceptions of regulation – poor and the
government wanted to change this
• Businesses (generally) understood that some regulation is
necessary but were unhappy with the way in which it was
enforced anecdotally
o Confidence
o Level playing field
o Protections / reduced risks
o Prosperity and growth
16. What did we want to achieve?
• A new relationship between local regulators and
business, built on
• Expertise
• Understanding
• Reassurance
• Improvements in regulator efficiency &
effectiveness
• Improved protections
17. The idea of Primary Authority
brings together two objectives
• Businesses want good regulation that gives them
confidence to prosper and reduces risks
and
• Government wants to promote economic growth,
provide business support and ensure protections
